This is not because it isn't secure. No! That's because I did only took the fastest and best AntiTrace routines and not those useless ones the (most) others took. The registered version uses a better encryption and even more traps! So it is a bit slower but if you compare the time with the others... JauMing's JMCE is 'bout as fast as TRAP but CUP386 3.4 is able to remove it. PCrypt uses some nice generic tricks, but it is very slow and the fuckin' screen flickers during every execution - what a dumb kind of AntiTraceCode! CSCrypt is a good protector but can be removed with TR 1.97 or higher. XPack, Protect and PKLite do not use AntiTraceCode against 80386 Unpackers because they are in first direction compressors wich make your files tight not secure. NoClip is a better joke! I can't imagine that anybody uses this ultra slow crap: Over 1 sec is MUCH to slow!
