What is a Software Crack ? A crack is a small program intended to defeat a software's copy protection, thus allowing unlicensed copies to be made - stealing it, in effect. Software that is distributed with its copy protection disabled or bypassed has been "cracked". Commonly, cracks are used on Software applications and games that would otherwise require an unlock code or registration to continue using the software. However, a softwares key is a piece of hardware that is hard-coded with an encrypted signature. It is attached to the parallel port on the back of the computer, and it provides security for the application software. As a rule, Software Cracks do not work on softwares protected with hardware keys! |
