█ Install the MemPatch Server (MPS) (see MPS section below in the nfo), █
█ then place clcd0000.mps into modules directory. If you already have █
█ MPS running, you'll need to reboot for the module to become active. █
█ █
█ IMPORTANT!! █
█ I'm sorry for forgetting to tell the key format that should be used █
█ for registering the CloneCD in my yesterday's release. So here is █
█ it: █
█ █
█ After the program's memory is patched you should register CloneCD █
█ using any name and the key. The key must be in the correct format █
█ though... It can be any string that is hexadecimal and meets the █
█ following conditions: █
█ █
█ - The key doesn't contain spaces, but logically it consists of two █
█ parts. █
█ - Each part starts with two-digit hexadecimal number, specifying █
█ number of four-symbol blocks followed █
█ - so the examples of keys in correct format are: 010000012222 (two █
█ parts one four-symbols block each) or 0200000000019999... well, you █
█ got the point. █
█ █
█ I'd like to thank eGIS! and DevilRide for testing this release on █
█ platforms I don't have on my puter (Windows 2000 WKS and Windows 98 █
█ accordingly) █
█ █
█ This version of CloneCD v2.2.1.1+ MPS module (clcd0000.mps) was █
█ tested with CloneCD versions 2.0.1.2 and 2.2.1.1. █

█ █
█ And here goes IMPORTANT part. Please read all the stuff below █
█ thoroughtly. █
█ █
█ This release includes MemPatch Server v1.0 (the idea (c) 2000 █
█ Ivanopulo). █
█ █
█ So what is MemPatch Server? █
█ █
█ To cut it short it's small set of programs intended for cracking █
█ packed applications. This is achieved by injecting MemPatch Server █
█ (MPS) dynamic link library into the address space of target process. █
█ As it gets in, it can do anything with the process' memory. MPS Dll █
█ ca be injected into any process that has a message queue, and the █
█ point is that packed .exe receives it's first message _after_ it's █
█ unpacked into memory. █
█ █
█ I already released something similar for The Bat! email client v1.41 █
█ (btw you'll need to uninstall this old stuff prior to installing this █
█ version), but there's major improvement in this release: it supports █
█ modules. MPS module is a little dll that corresponds to particular █
█ target application. That is, you have only ONE instance of MPS █
█ running. It tracks all started applications and loads required module █
█ when there's need for it. Once loaded, module quickly patches the █
█ program's memory and gets unloaded. All this stuff negligible affects █
█ system performance. █
█ █
█ By no means I'm gonna make many module releases for MPS. It's ONLY █
█ intended for cracking\ █
█ applications that are: █
█ 1. Virtually impossible to write keygen for (i.e. that use strong █
█ crypto) █
█ 2. Packed and very hard to crack by usual methods █
█ █
█ Of course it woud be a pain to release a module for each version of █
█ the program. That's why I make them so-called 'generic patches'. They █
█ should work for at least several future releases of particular █
█ program. █
█ █
█ Now we've reached the installation step. █
█ █
█ 1. If you have version of MPS for The Bat! 1.41 running, you need to █
█ UNINSTALL it. █
█ █
█ 2. Instructions if this is your first install of MPS: █
█ - Create a directory you'd like MPS to be installed in, then copy the █
█ executable and the .dll there. █
█ - Create 'modules' subdirectory and copy and any .mps files you'll █
█ find inside the package there. █
█ - Now your MPS directory should look like: █
█ \MPSInstalledHere █
█ mpsrenamed.exe █
█ mpsrenamed.dll █
█ \modules █
█ module1.mps █
█ module2.mps █
█ ... █
█ █
█ - If you don't want MPS to be detected by future versions of target █
█ programs - rename BOTH .exe and .dll, but give them the SAME name █
█ (i.e. if you rename executable to somefile.exe you MUST rename .dll █
█ to somefile.dll) █
█ - Run the executable. It will start automatically each time you █
█ reboot. █
█ - If you ever want to move MPS to different directory or to rename █
█ MPS .exe and .dll one more time, you can do it but you'll need to █
█ perform registry cleanup described below in [4.]. You'll also need to █
█ run MPS executable manually then to make it put itself into █
█ registry. █
█ █
█ 3. Adding new modules █
█ - If you already have MPS installed and you'd like to add a new █
█ module - just copy module .mps into MPS directory. The installed █
█ module will become active after you reboot. █
█ █
█ 4. Uninstalling █
█ - Start regedit.exe, then go to █
█ HKEY_CURENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run █
█ - Delete the value that matches the name of MPS executable. █
█ - Reboot █
█ █
█ 5. If you're wondering why all these install/uninstall procedures are █
█ so complicated for the end user, here's the answer - you need to do █
█ some job manually because it increases the probability that MPS won't █
█ be detected. █
█ █
█ This version of MPS was tested on: █
█ - WinNT 4.0 WKS SP 6a 128 bit █
█ - Win98 SE █
█ - Win95 OSR2 █
█ - Win2K WKS █
█ - Win2K SRV █
█ █
█ All tested versions worked OK on all platforms used. Thus, the █
█ conclusion can be made, that the mempatch server will work fine with █
█ at least several future versions of the program (RITLabs guys can █
█ change it, though :() Please let me know if you experience problems █
█ with this release (NO, this does NOT mean questions like 'what is █
█ regedit.exe'). █
█ █
█ USEFUL tip: after loaded module has detected memory location for █
█ patching and has patched it, you'll hear a 'beep' sound. So if you █
█ don't hear a beep during target program's startup and MPS is running █
█ - something went wrong. Please lemme know about it. █
█ █
█ And one more thing: if you suspect MPS being a trojan, virii or smth █
█ of such kind - just don't use it. If you think I spent some weeks █
█ making it just to get your AOL account password, you probably either █
█ dumb enough to not use MPS, or compelely paranoid. Well, jedem das █
█ seine... █
█ █
█ Enjoy =) █

█ █
█ CloneCD is a powerful CD-Copy program. It writes in Raw mode, which █
█ allows it to have total control on the data written. Therefore, █
█ CloneCD will produce real 1:1 copies of your CDs. No other program we █
█ are aware of is able to do this. █
█ █
█ Because of its special operation, CloneCD requires a CD-Writer which █
█ is capable of writing in this mode. Unfortunately only a few █
█ CD-Writers support this. █
█ █
█ Further, CloneCD requires a CD-Reader which supports some specific █
█ commands. █
█ █
█ With the correct equipment, CloneCD is able to make working copies of █
█ (almost) every CD, regardless if it is copy protected or not. █
█ █
█ * Benefits and Design goals of CloneCD * █
█ █
█ - CloneCD is a CD Replicator. It is no Mastering Software. This █
█ simplifies the usage of the program. █
█ - Creates working safety backups of every PC-CD, even those which are █
█ copy protected █
█ - Creates working safety backups of CD-Extra multimedia enhanced █
█ Audio CDs █
█ - Easy to use - you only need a few clicks to make backups from your █
█ CDs █
█ - Extensive online help █
█ - One year of free updates and technical support for registered █
█ users █
█ - CloneCD does not need any ASPI layer installed! █
█ - CloneCD does not require, that Auto Insert Notification is █
█ disabled! █
█ - Works with Windows 95/98, Windows NT 4.x (SP 4 or better) and █
█ Windows 2000. █

█ ╘══════════════════╛ █
█ █
█ For those who's interested in this program's protection mechanism - █
█ here's the info: █
█ █
█ Main keycheck routine is implemented as Nyberg-Rueppel signature █
█ scheme for Elliptic Curves defined over F2^m polynomial field. This █
█ makes writing a keymaker for CloneCD impossible. (so don't believe if █
█ someone says he managed to keygen it) █
█ █
█ The curve used has 242 bit prime order █
█ 1026DD85081B82314691CED9BBEC30547840E4BF72D8B5E0D258442BBCD31 █
█ █
█ I have the data for field polynomial written down somewhere on my HD, █
█ but atm I have no time to search for it, so sorry (the only thing I █
█ can recall it was polynomial of 272 or 271 degree) █
█ █
█ By the way, the curve used in CloneCD is the SAME curve defined over █
█ the SAME polynomial field as used by WinRAR. Heh, I wonder where did █
█ those guys find it and the library they used for implementing ECC. I █
█ know only one library that implements ECC - Miracl, but it has only █
█ Fp implementation. Maybe they bought the library from certicom... █
█ anyway, if you have that library and don't mind to send it to me - █
█ please do it. I had to dig into all this ECC implementation looking █
█ at disassembled code. Not the most pleasant occupation I had in life █
█ :) █
█ █
█ And the second level of protection in this program is implemented █
█ using ASProtect. Alex Solodovnikov did very good job on this █
█ protector (hi Alex) but yet it is possible to defeat it. The point is █
█ that ASProtect encrypts some program routines (in case of CloneCD █
█ registration info/program settings saving functions) and decrypts █
█ them with the password provided in the user's registration info █
█ (encrypted there). But fortunatelly I was able to grab one of the █
█ 'stolen' keys and after it was decrypted in memory I knew ASProtect █
█ password. Hehe, it's 'Suck me!' by the way. █
█ █
█ Okay, enuff talking... use it and enjoy =) █
