This crackme is again difficulty 1, that is very easy. Its educational value lies in finding the function that reads the key file and understanding what it does. Let’s have a look at the requirements:
  • Create a file which holds a valid key
  • Find out what a valid key is
  • No patching! (don't make it say you have a valid key wihtout having one)
  • No resource hacking ;)
This crackme teaches to find the Windows API functions in the import table by name as usual, to know which one to put the breakpoint at (if doing it with the dynamic debugger), no nasty tricks are used, also causes reader to read MSDN library on the Internet.
