hi!
IF YOU ARE NOT INTERESTED IN READING THE FOLLOWING - PLEASE IGNORE
- i am playing a little game with the "hackers", basically seeing
how much they know, and testing their patience.. just like
cracking is a game to them - they only get a kick out of it.
at the moment, i see two "competitive" hackers, who call themselves
"BadToast" and "Palmuser". the others have been very quiet
they seem to make some idea about the little tricks of the trade,
and they worked together on this one (i must admit, it took a day!)..
:)
these guys have an extensive knowledge of assembler..
if you are interested (to see how they work), apply their
patches and see what they have done (i am enjoying it). it is
just as much as a challenge to me as it is to them.

hope you fellow hackers are learning something.. :P
so regardless the outcome, it wont branch, and the code
when the "registration" is successful is executed at all
times..
really nice..
thankz guys.. has it been fun? :)
PS: i have no problem submitting these things, i hope you
like "LodeRunner" - i do! :P my next challenge will
come soon..
:)) off to JavaOne, so you wont hear from me for a
week or two.
- i have an idea of how to "stop" this, however it
means i have to do a lot of work on my end :)) it
could be worth it.

maybe i have too much time to kill playing these games?
but now i know there were two major "patch" holes in my
code.. it is taking them longer now.. but they have not
been able to grab the "regcode" algorithm.. that takes
too much work.. i definately know what my next move is..
:) until next time.
az.
