Hi all
I had writted 1 dll who emulate functions of hlvdd.dll ... All exe 's works fine with it ... all ... except 1 !

This exe are packed (with internal packer, maybe HL-CRYPT ?)...
I had removed all (i hope) anti softice ... Now i only have the error code 7 (not dongle).

1) First strange stuff : all bpio does nothing (anti softice ???) .. So where he check dongle ???
2) The app look for an UDP server .. He send 2 bytes (3 times)...

So my question are :
- How i can unpack this exe ??
- And if the exe are crypted and need a key, i can use bruteforce ?

Thanks
(ps : i have prb searching on this board, eg : i type hardlock in search but return 0 result... There are a lot of topic who speak about hardlock .. bug ?)
(ps2 : yes, i have looked on the web, read a lot of tuts, i didn't found any tutz of how unpack harlock protec )

Hi,

You are correct, the search function is not working.

We will be working to restore this as soon as possible.

Both hardlock vxd and sys have code (encrypted), which disables many of softices debugging capabilities.

The hardlock code is not for the faint hearted to decrypt.
It is encrypted with a type of state machine.

As for unpacking, that is not my gig.

There are comercial emulators available for Hardlocks...

Humm, if i understand (because my english suxx ) i can unpack this exe without the real dongle ??

My main problem are to found where to bypass the dongle check in the packed exe (checked in the .protect section)
