Instuctions on removing the one char limit.

12. you should now to able to protect/unprotect exe files.

You can also use the above information and take it two or three steps farther and modify the exe file so that you dont need the password to unprotect protected files, I'll leave this up to you to google.

I just signed up, so don't know what the rules are as far as uploading files. I can upload a patcher to do this for you if the rules allow.

If you download Resource Hacker you can modify the empathylib.dll which contains the image and text used in the dialog that is inserted into the exe files. You can now create your own logos for your protected files.

Wonder what it would take to get a reverse engineering forum on hak5.
