he chanllenged me to get the registration number, how do I do that does anybody know?
I tried using a hex editor, but I don't know what to look for, someone please help me
Use regedit to look for it in the registry, but he might have encrypted it.

You could use SoftIce..but that's another story and the hard way :p.
Or ask him for a hint on what the first letter is. Than you just use the Hex Editor, type in that letter. And any letter that starts with that and has the whole word to it, try typing it in. That is the longer way.
whats soft ice?, and he wound give me any hints
SoftIce is like a hex editor..cept its a little more advanced. It is much better than Hex Workshop or any of those other hex editors.
I will email you the link. I don't think John will be to happy of me posting it and where its being downloaded from.
If you want to re-post it, go ahead. But I don't take any responsibility for your actions. (Disclaimer ;])
Matthew Gates. Can you send me the link for it as well?
Matt, can you e-mail me it to [email protected]
Matthew:
If you don't mind I wouldn't mind having the link as well.
Thanks in advance.
Try this:
go to the MS-DOS prompt,
then type:
Edit /70 c:\filepath\filename.exe
then search for strings like "Register", "Reg", "serial",
and so...
if you find, just look around the word found.
Hope this will help,
Lior.
sorry, that didn't help
