* scanning of PC Games & Application files to detect the protection used(s) * detects most of the available executable compressor / crypter and it大 up to date in detecting the newest PC-Game protections * scanning CDs / DVDs for Tag轶 (only available on win2k / winxp, but no ASPI drivers required) * scan folders with all the included files * coded in 100% Win32 Assembly language, allowing it to run on every WinOS since Windows 95 * easy scanning with the shell context menu 'Scan with Protection ID...' or drag & drop files into the (simple to use) GUI * ability to scan a cracked file and to get possible information which protection was originally used * check for the newest update and download it * more strong scanning routines allowing it to detect multiple (!) protections in one file * no additional files like VB Runtimes, MSVC dlls or ASPI drivers are required, you simply need one exe file ! * constantly updated to detect the newest protections available for PC Games & Applications (hey which other tool has this feature too ? ;-)

History v5.2
- added: Protect DiSC protection level scan (Pro/Basic) - added: SecuROM exact version detection for lots of v7.27.xxxx and the first of the new v7.28.xxxx - added: Safedisc API detection Method 1 (available at oep dump of protected exe) - added: Safedisc API detection Method 2 (scan protected executable) - added: CDCops detection (scan *.QZ_ file) - added: JoWood X-Prot v2.x detection - added: Armadillo v4.54 detection - added: ActiveMARK v6 detection - added: Obsidium version detection for most files - added: Petite v1.2, v1.3, v1.4, v2.2 & v2.3 exact version detection - improved: Safedisc v4.70 detection in files with removed version string - improved: SecuROM 7.26 / 7.27 detection, added more checks for detailed version - improved: JoWood X-Prot v1.x detection improved - improved: Protect DiSC 6/7 scan, added more detailed versions - improved: BJFNT detection rewritten (version detection for v1.1, v1.2 & v1.3) - improved: EXE32Pack detection rewritten (version detection for v1.37, v1.38 & v1.42) - improved: ExeCryptor2 detection (also fixes possible false detections) - improved: Krypton detection rewritten (version detection for v0.2, v0.3, v0.4 & v0.5) - improved: NeoLite detection rewritten (faster & more accurate) - improved: Obsidium generic detection, added one more check - improved: PEBundle detection - improved: PE Lock v1.0x detection rewritten - improved: PE Pack detection rewritten (version detection for v0.99 & v1.0) - improved: Perplex PE Protector v1.01 detection rewritten - improved: PE Shield detection (version detection for v0.1d, v0.2, v0.25 & unknown versions) - improved: Shrinker detection rewritten (version detection of v3.4, v3.5 & unknown versions) - improved: SVKP detection rewritten, detection of v1.051, v1.11, v1.3x - v1.4x (or newer) - improved: YodaCrypt detection rewritten (version detection for v1.1, v1.2 & v1.3) - improved: detection for lots of minor exe protectors/packers rewritten, including: cEXE, Air EXE Lock, DEF, EXEProt v1.x, E-Zip, Lamecrypt, NFO, Noodlecrypt, Passlock 2000, PeX, PE Diminisher, PE Mangle, PE Nguincrypt, PE Ninja, PKLite32, SEPP, Softdefender, UPX Scrambler, VBO Watch, VG Crypt, Winkrypt, WWPack32 - fixed: possible crash in Xtreme Protector detection when scanning ExeCryptor v2.2.x wrapped files - removed: Protection Options in Armadillo scan (will be readded & improved later) - implemented check for Win32 DLLs with EntryPoint 00h (also fixes rare ASPack/ASProtect crash) - plus several protection version updates (i.e. Obsidium, MoloBox, PE Compact...)
due the amount of changes the version was raised to v5.2 most of the detection routines were recoded, resulting in faster scanning speed & being more accurate.
we′ve made improvements again in detection of the most common used pc game protections. SecuROM 7.28 detection is here (older ones also updated and wrong detections fixed), JoWoods new X-Prot will be detected, CDCops detection was added, ActiveMARK′s latest version 6 will be recognized, Safedisc routine is able to detect the latest v4.70 games with removed version and protection level (SDAPI or Safedisc Standard). Protect DiSC detection is up to date (improved exact version scan) and now also detects if the protection features are Basic / Pro.
thx to the people who helped with the more advanced features
