In detail, not. In general, yes.
Ok, I checked, you're correct, wrap isn't only this 40kB executable, uses
orancrypt9.dll (100kB) in Windows, this might be the one where encryption is

I've dealt with disassembling before, back in old dos times (disassembling
4kB graphical intros and few viruses :). I don't think this is a hard job to
do, it's just time consuming - it gets hard when the authors have planted
debugger traps and various other tricks into the code that make the crackers
life hard (or should I say interesting :)
