──────────────────────────────[ x55 v1.3 DOC]──────────────────────────────── pROGRAM : X-tRACTOR for Protect! EXE/COM v5.5 cOPYRIGHT : (C) mARQUIS [uNITED cRACKING fORCE] vERSION : 1.3 rELEASE : 04.12.95 rESTRICTION: public distribution forbidden rEQUIRES : 386+ ──────────────────────────────[ iNTENTION ]────────────────────────────────── I don't have time to write docs, anyway here are a few words: X55 is written to extract all files protected by Jeremy Lilley's perfect crypter PROTECT EXE/COM v5.5. Additionally this version can extract the old files of 5.0/5.1, even the modified ones by SLA or MDS. ───────────────────────────────[ oPTIONS ]─────────────────────────────────── X55 source.[exe] destination[.exe] e.g. "X55 protct55.exe unprot.exe" (to deprotect protct55.exe and save the code in unprot.exe) The original PROTECT! 5.5 is five times protected by itself. To test X55 just use it five times too, to deprotect J.L.'s version. ──────────────────────[ sOME wORDS aBOUT pROTECT! ]───────────────────────── J.L.: "As far as Protect! is concerned, it is just about the best, least- intrusive, anti-hacking software solution (just read the documentation files written by some of the hackers of previous versions of Protect! - many admit that Protect! was quite a challenge to break through)." m: Don't worry, it is still one of the best protection softwares around. J.L.: "Protect! may not be 100% fool-proof, but it has evolved quite significantly after some "cat-and-mouse" and it stands before you as the best lock to prevent people from breaking in to your programs." m: True. I only hate, if even the worstest programmer saying that. J.L.: "I coded a mutation engine for Protect! to make sure that the security envelopes wouldn't be the same every single time a new one is encoded." m: I coded a demutation engine for X55 to make sure that the security... ;) ───────────────────────────────[ wARNING ]─────────────────────────────────── a. X55 is provided "as-is" without warranty of any kind. b. Modified Protect! files cannot be deprotected by X55. <g> ──────────────────────────────[ iNTERNALS ]────────────────────────────────── The extractioncode of version 5.5 was written in about 4-5 hours, but analysing, debugging (Soft-ICE 2.62) and testing needed 15 extra hours. Anyway, it was a lot of fun to do it. The extractionroutine of the old version 5.0 based on a rewritten source of M.O. Finally I'm waiting for Protect 6.0. ───────────────────────────────[ rEVISION ]────────────────────────────────── v1.0▀ 28.03.95 First private beta version v1.1▀ 12.04.95 First version for UCF v1.2▀ 01.07.95 New version for friends v1.3 04.12.95 (Non)public release ───────────────────────────────[ gREETINGS ]───────────────────────────────── MaRooN - cauze he always did his best.
