CRC is used in many ways to check integrity of code segments by packers to identify signs of tampering or corruption.
Major packers including VMProtect, Themida, etc. make extensive use of CRC checks to prevent memory patching of processes.
CRC32 could also be used by some protectors for fast integrity check of whole files.
The tool that CodeCracker provided is for a slightly different use though.
