Actually this is a very good question and I've always wondered if the good crackers out there really took time to understand what the developer is actually doing. I'm fairly new to cracking and I guess a little naive and I've always tried to understand the underlying serial generation code. Although I understand how the serial is being generated, the calls etc, I don't think there's ever been a time when I could say what kind of implemtation it was - twofish, crc etc. I guess that would be really difficult to know what algorithm it might be solely by looking at low level dissassembly. But I have seen on Fravia's forum where some of the gurus really know - maybe one day I'll be like them.
