I do seem to remember that Talents "Lost Kingdon Of Zkul" and "West"
were simple to
crack. I remember myself and a friend cracked it in college, it took no
programming
at all, just a simple trick before copying the MDV. something to do
with creating a
blank file name...hmmm 24years have eroded my memory, Bad sector or two
i suspect, lol!

It's just a starting point. As somebody who has written and cracked a
gazilion copy protections and eben briefly entertained the idea of
writing a book on the subject, I can say that it is a hundred times
more difficult to write a copy protection than it is to break it.
There's always a way.
