Hi all,

sorry but i am only a lame VB6 Programmer. I know a little bit how reversers work. Now, i want to to protect a Programm a little bit.
So - i have a question to you experts.

First i want to insert a little protection by myself ( a lame one, but not mega lame ;-) )

Second and additional i want to buy a protection. So my question is, wich is at the moment the best protection on the market for a VB6 Product ?
Wich Product make it ugly hard and takes life time to crack it ?
what ?? now one ..... :-( - oh ... come on - okay .. takes some days....

I think this one is not really hard:

Im very happy if you give me some suggestions

Hi

While I'm not specifically endorsing it one way or another, try a search for "Code-Lock Ryan" on this board, read the threads with the most posts, and make your own judgement.

There are many other protections, and many other opinions on them, which I'm sure you'll hear some.

Only coherent comments, either negative or positive will be kept. Ones like "this prot sux 3ggs man and the developer is an ahole!" will be deleted without mercy...

Actually, I've heard that Code-Lock sux 3ggs, and that Ryan is quite the ahole.

Ummmmmmmmmm......

I think his protector is PFG.

if you want to buy the best protection, why would you want to also implement your own additional protection? if you think what you buy is going to work, then there's no point in adding something yourself. if you think what you buy isn't going to work, then why bother buying it?

@disavowed

i think two different protections safer then one. i will not do this crypting and antidebugger stuff by myself. but this should be the first difficult. if this level killed then my little stuff should stand as long as possible. i think a good way of some protection is to generate a lot of work, really big work that not can jumped over to the end and looked there what is the key because its allover a part of the application.
I know there is no 100% secure
