Hi,
as mentioned in the topic, I'm currently looking for some information about ProtectDisc. I did a search here, at Exetools, at Arteam's site and at BiW - nothing. I also asked aunt Google - still nothing. Only crappy Warez and such.
When trying to deal with a protected exe or with the ProtecDisc .dll itself, Olly denies to work. So if anyone has any information about this protection...
Thanks a lot in advance.

Regards
darkelf

I suggest it might not be debugable due to themida/vmprotect (both not very clever used but probably they are not able to code own VMs at all so their only option for complex obfuscation).The latest versions of PCD mostly borrow ideas invented by other popular protection systems just poorly implemented. I wonder why Daemontools doesnt add support for PCD finally as its no big deal to find out how their (poor) blacklist works! Depending on the PCD version you got (disc/online) their checks also change and enable you to debug it without any problems (search a bit better, public plugins will do all the magic). More later..
