"The first thing you have to get is SoftIce, SoftIce is the perfect debugger for cracking ..
well I think so ... With this program you can break on api commands such as
messagebox's and dialog boxes."

"Now you've got all you need to crack, but sometimes the programs you crack
can be a bitch ;) maybe the program is packed or some other neat stuff .. that's why
we've got the File Analyzer. This program can analyse most packers and peheader information."

"Now if the program is packet, then you'll need a depacker. And that' where
ProcDump comes in. This tool can be very handy. It can make full dump of programs,
and also has scripts to depack most known packers."

ProcDump v1.6 Final:
disk 1 161kb

"Okay .. if ProcDump can't depack the program, but you allready know what bytes
to patch in SoftIce, then R!SC has made a pretty cewl process patcher. It's very easy to
use, this program makes a loader for the program, and patches the bytes in memory."

"Well this is more than you need to start up ;) but there is a few other good
programs out there to help you out. There are two good monitors, that can monitor the
regbase and one to monitor files. This can be very helpfull if the program is reading
the serial from the registry or from a file ..."
