I get 21/47 on virustotal.com for canyou.dll . I guess it’s safe anyways because you wouldn’t post a virus (wouldn’t you?)?

I spent a great deal of time skimming through reverse engineering tuts and i have to say hands down these are the most detailed and easy to follow series i ever read, i actually prefer your tuts over any videos i found,Let me ask you this.. do you believe you can crack any software ? can you say that with the educational information you provide focused and determined readers will posses the power to conquer any software ?

I dont understand the serial check routine after the serial you entered goes into “keygenning” routine you arrive at one point where the real check is done:

XOR [ARG.2],1337C0DE
SUB [ARG.2],BADC0DE5
MOV EAX,[LOCAL.1]
NOT [ARG.2]
XOR EAX,[ARG.2]
NEG EAX
SBB EAX,EAX
INC EAX

I dont understand the “check” that is going on here,the C flag get set here but i am missing the whole picture,any clue?

Great piece of work and knowledge, big thanks for that. You write so clear and straightforward, keep going.

Unfortunately canyou.dll treated as trojan – 10 / 41 at virustotal.com

Because of the nature of some of the apps and crackmes in this series’ nature, false positives show up from time to time. The best way to see if it’s a false positive is to go to http://www.virustotal.com and upload the file. It will scan the file using 42 different virus scanners. If you only get 3 or four hits, you know it’s nothing. More than 7- I would stay away from.

If you downloaded the files from me, you do not need to worry about them- all of mine were scanned with VirusTotal before I even did the tutorials.

I’ve been really enjoying these tutorials. I went through 3- 7 today already, and I’ll probably do 8 and 9 as well…
One issue:
Avg detects crackme8 as the virus Win32/Heri . Is it a false positive, or is it possible that the crackme creator is malicious. Thank R4ndom!
