From my POV ReFox is the worst hacker. Why would someone use it other than stealing code. If ReFox weren't sold to public we could at least narrow hackers.
They simply make my exe protection trials useless so I don't care to protect at all. Only just for this reason I think to leave VFP :(
Any code could be cracked but why give 'cracker' tool to anyone that pays for it. An honest < bg > hacker could deserve to use the code that cracked only by him/herself w/o external tool.
Autocontrol and respect to others' work is the only copy protection I believe.

>That is what ReFox would like you to belive, but it is simply NOT TRUE. I found a way to decompile a ReFox protected app ("branded with a password" as they call it) with a hex editor. Took me a while to figure out how to do it but repeating the process takes about 2 mintues! I've told them how it is done (because I want my money back)...no response.
