My dad's system has been faithfull for a bit, and this week it started to show
its age.
Its a mishmash of bits and bobs and xp was part of it all.

Well, there were other ways to crack Jaws besides replicating the
authorisation disks, and one method is still open to a cracker if he or
she knows assembly. A couple of years ago there was a cracked demo of
Jaws floating around. The cracker disassembled the Jaws demo, turned off
the timer,

Unfortunately, that is the downside of internet based product

Hi Bryan,
Yeah, I know all about how fical and tempermental computers can be.
Earlier this week my copy of Vista died on my laptop and I was forced to
spend three entire days recovering all my stuff, reinstalling Vista,
apps, and getting my development tools reconfigured. In fact, I still

Hi Daniel,
I didn't say they talked about it on mailing lists, per say, it is just
a well known fact that these cracked games get passed around by word of
mouth and through private channels. Not to mention the information isn't
that hard to come by if you know the right listers to ask.

Hi Michael,
Yes, I have to agree with the point you raised just because there is a
percentage of people who will crack your product doesn't mean a
developer needs to be totally lax about security. On the other hand too
much security can be a major turn off for some potential customers. So

Hi,
I agree with Draconis. What I've seen is a Troopanum2 crack, yes. And is
it hardware-based? I believe it was. I didn't use it, just... Gained
information from jerks who pirate stuff.
And Liam, there's stuff going around... My point is that I agree with you

Wow, Tom, they talk about this stuff on mailing lists?
I agree with Che that he would put a lawyer to work, but piracy can't really be
stopped. It's
been proven dozens and dozens of times.

Hi Bryan,
As long as there are developers out there like Jim Kitchen who donates
his games for free crackers won't kill the ag market, but they may
discover companies who have games they want to play will close up shop
and go elsewhere.
Allot of developers, like myself, are just writing games fo
Hi,
One thing to keep in mind is that crackers have a mind set if they can't
crack it they don't want it sort of attitude. So Either way you look at
it you are not going to get that sale weather you have great security or
poor security. The only major diference is that poor security makes it

Hi Che,
I think your position is equally valid. I have seen similar lists of
cracks for popular accessible games including discovered a crack for all
the GMA Games and the PCS Games. All that piracy is going to do is make
developers less interested in developing games, or strengthen security

I think with recent trends in technology with people owning multiple
computers, or machines that run an Os, hardware based keys may cause trouble
in future, and not just for the customer. what happens when we all want keys
for our desktop, laptop, and mobile phone.

The recent trend away from DRM in music downloads is a great
