Cracklock is the leader in the hard task of repairing a bug present in a growing number of sharewares and exploited by a polymorph virus known as the '30th day' virus. As its name implies, the virus manifests itself only once you have run the infected software for a certain period of time; usually 30 days suffice to trigger it. Cracklock can be used for other purposes as well, for instance developers have used it to certify their software for 'Year 2000' compliance. Since then we've improved Cracklock and are now proud to announce that it can also certify your software against the Y10K bug (aka 'bug of the year 10000').

What's new
See the change log to see the list of recent changes. The following features were introduced since version 3.9:
- Cracklock can now be run from a flashdisk
- It is possible to choose whether to store informations in the Windows Registry or in an INI file.
- Cracklock still (partial translation) of the following languages: french, english, spanish, arabic, serbo croatian, hungarian, korean, german, simplified chinese and portuguese.
Documentation
The english documentation is available here. For other languages an older version of the documentation is available:
Contributing to the translation
The translation tool I once developped (RLGui) is now deprecated. Although it had nice features (for instance it can automatically reuse strings translated for version n of a program to generate translation for version n+1), it required me to do some postprocessing each time a translator submitted his translated strings.
From now on, if you want to make a new translation of Cracklock, use any resource editor available on the net. I recommened Resource Hacker, Resource Explorer, or even Microsoft Visual Studio. You can use those tools to edit one of the file in the 'Language' subdirectory of Cracklock (e.g. CLRESUS.DLL for the english version) then save it under another name (e.g. CLRESGE.DLL for german) in the same directory. After restarting Cracklock Manager, the newly created language will appear under the Language menu.
