It just takes out the pause when you quit. The only way to get the registered version is to pay for it. To run the patch, just put VP.COM in the same directory as VP.EXE, then instead of calling VP.EXE in your batch files or whatever, just call VP.COM. ════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════ Crack Info - This was a tricky patch. VP.EXE was compressed with something that put a PKLite message at the start of the file, but nothing I had would uncompress it. So I had to do a loader. I don't like loaders but it had to be done. What I did was I grabbed INT 16 first. The INT 16 handler would only do something if AH=0 ( Wait for keypress ). If AH was 0 then I checked to see if the key pressed was the ESC key. I did this by calling the original INT 16 with AH=1 ( Check Key Status ). If ESC was pressed, I then grabbed INT 10. The INT 10 handler grabbed a word off the stack. That word just happened to be the target CS for the patch. Once I had that, I patched offset 0D1Bh and replaced a conditional jump with an unconditional jump. The exact bytes replaced were 7403 -> EB03. After that, I restored INT 10. The program then prints out the exit screen then it sets up the wait. The patch I just made makes it think that it's done waiting so it quits. Then INT 16 gets restored and your back at the C:> prompt. P.S. - Sorry to all those who find the above very boring but it is included for those of us who want to know more about the crack then just how to make it work. [HW: Amen!
