Tried unpacking DVDIdle Pro - AsProtect

After doing some tracing....

Since I am interested in creating a serial#.... the code to check for a valid serial # is missing. That's why the XOR EAX,EAX works because the serial# check is missing (from the program). It's not being left in "unpacked" program (which is probably why there aren't many keygens for AsProtect Programs IE: PowerStrip and DVDIdle Pro/Region Free).

I BP on all (and every) RegQueryKey and it never loads hKey with "KEY" which is where the code is stored in the Registry.

When you go thru the enter serial # dialog box.... it's a dummy... no check is done. It just saves it to the registry and tells you to restart. When you restart the program.... it bypasses the missing code due to the XOR EAX,EAX.

How do I get that code into the pack as well? Is it impossible with AsProtect?

-Malt....

Me Thinks I have to do this in memory... and not from an unpacked file.
