          H2O does it again.........!!!

          Although everybody thought that Syncrosoft and Steinberg had found the
          ultimate protection, we prove otherwise.

          We admit that it's getting harder and harder to do and this one may
          possibly be the last one we do.

          Due to the complex nature of the protection we thought of approaching
          it from another direction.

          The Emulation is now done on driver-level, which means that the Emu
          essentially mimics a dongle, look in the License Control Center to
          view the applications the Emu supports. By writing the Emu at driver
          -level we probably went beyond cracking an application. The amount of
          effort invested in this project is staggering , estimated at over 1500
          manhours during cracking, developing & testing, and probably will
          never be done again.

          We hope u enjoy this release and the motto "if u use it alot then buy
          it!" applies

          Note to protection coders :

          Unbelievable way you transform an application. We estimate that
          between 30% & 40% of the application are wrapped in the script
          protection. Protection is one thing but this surely effects an
          application performance. You probably could get a performance gain of
          50% without the protection!!

          Think about this : Once broken, the protection is , what ????

Submission + - Microsoft Caught Changing Wikipedia

NIN1385 writes: "While Wikipedia is known as the encyclopedia that anyone can tweak, founder Jimmy Wales and his cadre of volunteer editors, writers and moderators have blocked public-relations firms, campaign workers and anyone else perceived as having a conflict of interest from posting fluff or slanting entries. So paying for Wikipedia copy is considered a definite no-no. http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,246400,00.html "
