? Question about Asprotect 1.2 degbugger detection

Hello all,
this is my first post here

I have never done any manual unpacking before. So the answer may be easy.. or maybe considered too indepth for the likes of me.

There is a program I'm "working" on that is protected by "ASProtect 1.23 RC4 - 1.3.08.24". None of the unpackers I've seen have been able to unpack it. I have found a couple of tutorials for manually unpacking Asprotect, however they both use ollydbg. That would be fine except for the fact that this program can detect debuggers and keeps me from following the directions in the tutorial.

This is not important enough for me to accomplish if it will require spending lots of time finding and stripping this debugger protection or using softice.

I guess this post is just a question of "Does anyone know of a quick way around the debugger detection (without using softice)?"

Thanks for your time. -b
