Adobe Golive 5.0 - VBOX 4.3

Type : Editor
Protection : VBOX 4.3
Tech : RegEdit & File Delete


Crack : Have you ever wondered how VBOX keeps track of your 30 day trial.
VBOX is realy a good protector.But it has its own weak points.

If you look in to the trial software i.e Adobe Golive ,we can see a folder "VBOX"
inside it we can see a file named "VSetupT.exe" i.e. inside "Adobe GoLive 5.0 Tryout\VBox\"

Secret Behind VSetupT.EXE :

VSetupT.EXE make four important files in your computer :

C:\os528730.bin
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\ws986515.ocx

C:\WINDOWS\Vbox\Licenses\GoLive_5.0_E27D.lic
C:\WINDOWS\Vbox\Licenses\GoLive_5.0_E27D.prf

These files control "30 DAY Trial" :)
I used RegMon to find secret registry keys.
VBOX also creates two secret key in registry :

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{5EC2F300-3A29-4EF5-F75B-62B236A775FC}
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\.avi\{28EF5262-6FE3-91EA-E1D5-A0DECE5B5268}

These keys are made on first run .

So my point is that if your trial period is over delete following files :

C:\os528730.bin
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\ws986515.ocx
C:\WINDOWS\Vbox\Licenses\GoLive_5.0_E27D.lic
C:\WINDOWS\Vbox\Licenses\GoLive_5.0_E27D.prf

And also use "Regedit.exe" which comes with your windows9x to delete following RegKey:

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{5EC2F300-3A29-4EF5-F75B-62B236A775FC}
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\.avi\{28EF5262-6FE3-91EA-E1D5-A0DECE5B5268}

Now last step :

Run the file "VSetupT.exe" to produce a fresh 30 DAY TRIAL copy.Which is found inside :
Adobe GoLive 5.0 Tryout\VBox\VSetupT.exe

NB : I don't know if same registry keys are made by VBOX on all computers.
