Hi WlAda,

This is probably not what you want to hear
but if you are an absolute beginner then
(imho) this target will be too difficult for
you. It would be difficult to unpack it manually so you would need to think about using an unpacker. That's not the end of the story, Elcomsoft products are not the easiest to crack anyway. Why not tuck this away until you have a bit more experience. You could look in on the current unpacking project in the mini project. If you are not a total novice then
I should have kept my mouth shut and
if you are determined to go ahead anyway
then I suggest you take a look at ReVirgin.

regards

Hi

If you think that the OEiP is up there at CB........ then you need a bit of help Try www.discompress.com and a few tuts and explanations there for the beginners to moderates.

There are a lot more tuts from excellent reversers around but I want to gather this info in one place......

I am revamping the site as I believe the art of unpacking MUST be learned. Otherwise you might as well be a lamer and get a serial directly..... So I am attempting to introduce
the newbie into the 'approach' and use of tools to succesfully unpack a target, any target regardless of packing/wrapping sytem used. Once this is practised a few times then unpacking becomes easier

I am looking for ideas from newbies on what they expect....
