Hi Labba,
sry i cannot answer your question but maybe it helps too... If you use Sysinternals Diskmon you can see that at Safecast protected application startup are very much reads on small sectors of the hdd. It writes license informations in sectors 30 - 60 (i saw read access in that range). I got a old document how to reset the timetrial on cdilla but i can't imagin that it work these days. I attached you the document... Hope it works, greets _veDc

well another crypkey-like trial protector.
Luckily i never installed a program with c-dilla(except for safedisked games). I wonder how they are legally allowed to phisically work with your hard drive without you to know this issue.

safecast does www checks with your computer data like cpu,system,memory,mobo & ip, then data also are written into registry, another place is documents & settings\application data\boonty\licences\b8043366.dat
then next is hdd 0 cluster 0 head and sector 32 for me for example there is also licence, funny that its not only for one game but many more, so if it expires, you cant run other games. but those arent all places, i couldnt find more. easier is to overcome expired in code. trace just when game is full and expired and compare log. i will keep it to myself and will not tell:P another thing that checks are on same host as game download, so when we ban host where it checks licence, then we will not download game

And if I use a defrag utility and store this info in another sector because I select to defrag using date/time access? I don't believe that in this days some company stores license info in FIXED sectors...

erase the sector it writes to, and delete the c:\c-dilla folder on the hdd and the folder mentioned above ... worked for me when i played with it a long long long time ago

nothing is there due its partition table cluster, 0 cluster 0 head 1 sector is partition table rest is unused, 0 cluster 1 head is bootsector of first partition so only safecast or virus can be there

... or other app that behaves like safecast and also stores data in that sector
 This 0-0-x sector trick was fairly common in the DOS good ol' days, so I wouln't be surprised if more windows programmers came up with the same thought.
