If you are a beginner in cracking, you might suspect there is a way to go around these protectors. If you are a cracker, you KNOW the way(s) around. sTATUS qUO Have you ever used a Nu-Mega debugger for decrypting protected files? The worst situation is: with a Backdoor disabled Soft-/WINICE and Dump- exe you need mostly 2 min. for unpacking anything. Or do you know this damn nice CUP386 v3.2 from Alex? You have to. Now get yourself a different debugger, a free weekend and try unpacking cIPHATOR...it's not perfect but stronger than you might suspect. cIPHATOR pROF. protects (compressed) DOS-EXE-files against unpacking, debugging and altering. It should be used ONLY after you've compressed a program with Protect!, WWPack, Tinyprog or any similar packer, because cIPHATOR itself has no build-in-compression - which comes soon. rEQUIREMENTS Just DOS 6.0+, VGA-Card, 486+ and some files to protect. oPTIONS CIP - protects the file progname.exe sPECIAL Any protected EXE shows reg.- and version-information by entering: PROTECTED.EXE -- (shows regname on a protected file or PROTECTED.EXE // tESTNOTES cIPHATOR pROF. was successfully tested on a 486 DX/4, a Pentium 133, under DOS 7.0, WIN 3.11, WIN95, WIN/NT and under OS/2. I found no bug. Anyway, if you encounter any problems just tell me and I try to fix them asap. wARNING! In general cIPHATOR works fine as long as you don't use a debugger. It will freeze/crash your system if and only if you try to unpack a file with Soft-ICE, WINICE, Intruder or any similar programs. Try it at your own risk; better buy Periscope and/or invest some days in coding a nice unpacker. Notes: Hooked INT 1 & 3 will be unhooked to an IRET by cIPHATOR. Q & A Q: Why does my screen FLICKER if I use a cIPHATOR-protected file? A: It's for antidebugging, so don't worry, your PC is 100% ok. rEGISTRATION cIPHATOR is ChangeWare: I don't want any money for registering it, I just change a personalized copy against other cool/useful selfcoded programs. gREETINGS FrMaid, Eddie, J.
