sKAMER (notice how it sounds like lamer),

You have done a great job really.
You have keygenned the *free* version of Armadillo. Congrats!
You might just as well have asked for those keys from DR! They give them for free!

If you wanted to help us doing the support by giving free keys for the free version, you couldn't have done it any better!

Thanks for your support.

Yes, he's quite fast... at "cracking" something that Digital River gives away for free!

Just so everyone knows, including sLAMER, the Digital River Edition of Armadillo is useless for anything except protecting programs for the Digital River Network. That's why DR makes it available free, and why we didn't bother protecting that certificate very strongly.

And here comes my unwanted post (didn't "certified" by Chad & Mafia)


Hi there warm people.

I like to talk to honest people, where friendship is the principle. I'm really pleased to meet such a kind place.

1. If "SK" sounds for you like "L" then someone has serious troubles with pronunciation and/or hearing. I recommend
the following article: hxxp://xxx.icbeusjc.com.br/plantao/language/lang02.html

2. If you claim about "free" version "easy to crack" then may I ask you, dear sir, WHY ARE YOU PROTECTING IT THEN???

4. "we didn't bother protecting that certificate very strongly" It's like I've bought Mercedes A Class and it breaks down every day. Then I come to the dealer and he should say (as you're): "Sir... it's just A class... we didn't bother developing it very strongly" No comments.

3. I see after trying lots of tricks to fright Skamer you've chosen another (good indeed) way: to make him feel that you don't bother about cracks. Very good decision - I understand you have so much customers (frequently being lied by you) that you don't need another BLIND clients.

4. "Thanks for your support" - Yeah, I agree with that. Skamer! Thanks for relasing Armadillo! I don't need to buy it to use its cool features (of course I don't mean "protection" but other "nice" options like showing splash screen during loading "protected" executable)

5. If I were you, I would ask Skamer for cooperation and offer him a job. That would save you LOT OF TIME and STRENGTHEN THE PROTECTION. But I'm only usual person, who don't understand these complex market rules (relasing "free" protected versions, "weak" certificates, etc.).

Best wishes.
