please help

it appears that my progie is #1 of your examples, an i have found the piece of code in the dll that it creates in my temp folder, and can just nop it and it goes to "thank you for your registration" no prob, but this wont help because the dll is allways deleted after the progie is shut down, and it does not look to see if a dll is there or not when you start it up.

Im lost so could some one please help?

STEALTH32 -- Software Protection Technology

Stealth32 is a patent-pending technology. It's designed by ex-Microsoft Windows NT developers who know the ins-and-outs of the Windows operating system. With Stealth32, you can be sure your intellectual property is safely distributed and tried before they're purchased.


Features
Latest encryption technology: compress and encrypt your executable. In most cases, your EXE will load faster because of the smaller file size.
BIOS-Locking: an advanced feature that prevents your customers from sharing their registration key with others.
Anti-rollback system clock: Stealth32 can determine the correct date/time from the BIOS directly prevent your trial users from renewing their software by rolling back the system clock.
Anti-debugging: to maximize protection against hackers, Stealth32 empties the process memory when a debugger is attached to the protected software.
Require no changes to your code: Stealth32 works directly with the Win32 Portable Executable (PE) format so you don't need to change your source code.
No source code needed: you don't even need to have the source code around. Stealth32 injects itself directly into your executable to give you transparent protection.
Check Registration Status at Runtime: With a few simple calls, you can tell whether your app has been registered and enable/disable certain features accordingly.
Works with any Windows Win32 applications.
Tested for 95/98/Me/NT/2000/XP: so you know your protected software will work everywhere.

Did you see the other eCommerce software they make?

PowerBlaster

Send 22 Million Pop-ups a Day

We have developed and optimized a software that will send your popups
directly to the computer screen of the people you wanted to see your
advertising. Instantly!

No more waiting, no more email filters to fight, relays and proxies to find.
Just compose your message and you are ready to start your campaign.

85% of all consumer computers are able to display the popups you are
sending to them with this software.

This software is better than bulk email. Why? Here are the reasons:

    * There are no email lists to worry about. Bulk email is regulated by
      different laws in different states, instant popups are not.
    * Bulk email is sent to an email address which sometimes is not even
      checked. popups delivered by this program are delivered straight to
      the screen of your client.
    * Responses to emails come in days later sometimes, when people
      read their emails. Responses to PowerBlaster popups are as instant
      as the popups. Message arrives, people go check out your website.
    * These popups are completely anonymous and virtually untraceable.
      Bulk email will cause you trouble with your ISP if you are not using
      special software to hide your IP address. With this program your IP
      address never shows up anywhere.
    * Response rate is a lot higher, which means more business to you.
    * Delivery rates are instantly presented to you. You can see how many
      popups were delivered and actually seen by people.

Supported Platforms

    * Windows NT/2000
    * Windows XP
    * Windows Server 2003

Jdogrulz: Sorry, I was temporaly unavailable.

Anyway, it seems you have really easy stuff, no matter what your skills are. I propose to break on DeleteFileA from Kernel32 and extract this dll. Then you can rename it and its name in the exe and have lots of other solutions - just think about it. I bet you will force it.

Best regards and Happy Easter to everyone
