Daz I'm wondering, why is your tool protected? I can't decompile it, so I'm wondering why people should trust it in the first place. I recon your tool is probably the best one out there, but as a security nut I need to know what and why you hide your files? Wouldn't be best for our community if it was open-source? Are you planning on making it open-source?Thanks in advance,Amanda
Yes. I didn't find such thread, sorry. Newcomer! Anyway it's already created so I guess it's easier for him to see.
Hahahah Thanks but I didn't think such question would be answered else where. I'll take a look at that topic in the mean time.
Sure, not everyone is an expert, you know. My intention is not to harsh on his program neither on him, but find out what exactly he hides in there, it really is lighting the lights on me because I couldn't find a satisfatory answer on what it actually does or how to manually activate my Windows copy. So either people trust on what's there and blindly accept what he says (because the results are the expected, it really does activate but what eles could it do?) or just "don't use it".
I've been asked a few times in the past. With them reasons given we say that if you don't trust it then simply don't use it, but millions have used it since 2009 and nobody has ever had problems. No files are modified, no extra processes are running and there's zero network activity. OEM activation requires a SLIC. A SLIC is an ACPI table usually loaded into memory by your BIOS. So the loaders essentially a silent boot manager that boots before Microsoft's and injects a SLIC into memory. The result will make your system look like an OEM system, which when paired with a certificate and OEM key will activate you.
The BIOS isn't modified at all. All edits are done after the BIOS has loaded the ACPI tables into memory. The easiest way to think of the software is as a silent boot manager as it's run after the BIOS, but before Windows. You can then see the result of the loader by looking at the bottom of an MGADiag report. You'll notice your original report won't have a SLIC, or maybe it will if you've got a PC that come with Vista. Either way the newer report would display a newer v2.1 SLIC designed for Windows 7.
Thanks, your posts are clear and informative. I'll do a deep search on the web about your loader. You can lock the thread now.
