Here's what crackers say to this. Seems it doesn't really matter whether TB is 
exe-packed or not...

 �   A:  This  mempatch-server consists of .exe and .dll file that will be   �
 �   located  in  your  system  directory. The server starts up every time   �
 �   system  does. Then it sleeps and awakes every time new application is   �
 �   started.  It  makes a quick check if it's The Bat! executable or not,   �
 �   and  if  it is - it patches the program's memory after it's unpacked.   �
 �   PLEASE  NOTE:  The  server stays resident (runs all the time), but it   �
 �   takes _negligible_ system resources.                                    �
 �                                                                           �
 �   Q: How to use?                                                          �
 �   A:  It's  probably  the  most simple part. press 'Install' and forget   �
 �   about  it.  If  you  need  to  uninstall it - press 'Uninstall', then   �
 �   restart the puter and that's it.                                        �
 �                                                                           �
 �   Q: Why so complicated?                                                  �
 �   A.    Because.    First  of  all,  using  RSA-512  in  the  program's   �
 �   code-checking  routine makes writing a keymaker virtually impossible.   �
 �   Second,  this  program is packed/protected with ASProtect, one of the   �
 �   most powerful protectors available. Third, I hate loaders... it suchs   �
 �   when  you  have  to  run another program instead of the original .exe   �
 �   every  time.  Forth,  it's the idea behind this mempatch-server isn't   �
 �   complicated  at all. Fifth, it works with ANY The Bat! version!! (see   �
 �   below)                                                                  �
