how do i make a keygen?]
any instructions?
did my thread got deleted or ...? am i allow to ask this kind of question? i am not requesting for tools or wares. just instructions thanks
thanks in advance. anyting coulld be helpful

I'm guessing you'll need some programming knowledge, and knowledge about the key's that you'll be generating. Other than that, I don't know.
Thread will stay open for MATURE conversation. If I see an immature comment crapping the whole thread then I may just kill the whole thread.
And no, asking about how a key generator works is not true warez. providing a link to keygens, now that's warez.

Before you can make a keygen for a specific program, you'd need to know how that specific program checks to see if a key is legitimate. Which most likely means you'd need to reverse-engineer the application and find the appropriate part in its code where license keys are checked.
Once you've figured out the algorithm the app uses to verify a key, you can reverse that to generate keys that look legitimate.
So you'd need a good knowledge of at least one programming language. Depending on the application, you may need to be able to read assembly as well.

Yep, it's not that easy a task.

yup, reverse-engineer, was jsut about to say that.

sorry for all that mess.
i didn't mean to dig up my stupidity. but all i wanted was
a program that can randomly generate the keys i put in.
like say
i got a set of key
111
222
333
444
and now i want to put into something like or is keygen, that can simply show me one set of those when i click on generate botton
nothing really more nor complicate than that. or if something is more complicate you can point me to it would be great too.
thanks

erm that's funny cause w32dasm makes it pretty darn easy *at least for small apps.

anything like Visual Basic or even C++ can do it. You can use a random number generator, to choose between 1 through 4, and then have a switch case statement to assign 1, 2, 3, 4to the respective keyes. But that only works if you know all the keys in advance.
Otherwise, you need the algorithm as Danny Smurf said. And that, is usually as top secret as information gets.
