Hi there and welcome to the home of ProtectionID - the best just got
better!
As you probably know, we are always trying to put our best into ProtectionID and to
keep it up to date for all
YOU users, this is of course very time consuming, and is purely a hobby.
It all started as a simple pc game protection scanner back in 2003 - look
what it has become now :-)
If you are using ProtectionID on a regular basis and you like the quality and work
we have put into it
(and will continue to put in), why not consider giving a donation as a reward ?
If you want to donate money click the paypal button above
If you want to donate (time, games, code, etc), contact us at the usual email address (above)
If you want to help with the project (code / test / do the web page etc) please feel free to email as well
Note
CDKiLLER recently emailed, but never replied to my reply, so the project is still being developed only by me (TippeX),
and times are tough, hence the paypal button.. the project will still remain free, if you do donate, thankyou..
(Older Notes)
CDKiLLER has not been involved in the project since 09/09/2011, and has been
totally uncontactable,
I hope he’s safe and well, and that he will get in touch. As a result the
development paused for a while
as I had other things to deal with too, but I then thought that CDKiLLER would
want the project continued, so
as / when / if he comes back he’ll be able to continue, and we always wanted to
keep our user base happy….
So, I restarted the project relatively recently, as a result I also lost the
contact information on the beta
testers, and had to try and find them, if I missed any, or indeed, if you want to beta test
then please use the email address below.
You can contact me at the email address at the top of the page
News
(Current News - 30th oct 2018)
Halloween release will be slightly late, im ill and something else came up :(
Download problems
Any download problems are generally server side, which is out of my control..
All the files are rar version 5 format (which means you need rar 5 to unrar them which you can find at RarLabs)
The update feature inside ProtectionID is broken atm, it'll report that a new version
exists but
it'll download the index.html (this page) instead due to a url mishap so just download it from the
link above (i will try and fix this later.. i only noticed it now)
To-do's
* User manual needs to be done, I dont have time at the moment, so if anyone would like to
write one, then I would be happy to publish it (credit will obviously be given)
False Positives in scans and Undetected Protections
I always try and keep ProtectionID up to date, but there are lots of protections
out there, and I can't cover every single one, so if you find one that ProtectionID
does not detect, email me and send me a link of where to get the file and I will see
what I can do..
If you find a file that ProtectionID detects incorrectly, please email me and send me a
link of where to get the file and I will try and fix the detection code

Note: ProtectionID is not malware, virused or anything else, for safety you should only
download from the Home site, and verify the file hash matches the
one in the VirusTotal scan I include in the rar file, and It's url (so tampering with

- bugfix: cab file handler bug fixed
- bugfix: scan file on cd/dvd did not work
- bugfix: fix for shortcuts getting corrupted
- bugfix: fixed bug in the seh system, which lead to a crash
- bugfix: file queue stuff (pause, remove, clear all) fully operational again
- bugfix: logic fix, checking section count could technically be wrong if exe was x64
- bugfix: selecting scan folder 2x resulted in it messing up
- bugfix: minor adjustment to avoid closing an invalid handle

the highest probability is automatically figured out and reported
- new: work on compiler detection began
-> The compiler detection simply reports what
compiler was used to make
the executable, It can also
sometimes report the programming language
the executable was made
with.
current detections: dotnet,
visual basic & visual basic.net, some visual c/c++, borland c++, delphi

disabled if
the operating system is
windows 9x/me (i.e.: less than windows 2000)

Beta Build v52, v2.00 - v2.10 and v2.20 - v2.64
- added: some more CD/DVD-Check detections
- improved: Laserlok detection
- improved: Safedisc [generic v1, v2, v3, v4] verification code making it
possible to detect a faked Safedisc protection were the SD string
'BoG_ *90.0&!! Yy>' was simply added to the PE header, also added another
piece of code checking for 'real' Safedisc
- improved: Safedisc v3.20 - v4.xx [unknown version] is more accurate due new
checks
(i.e. NBA Live 2006, version is removed, PiD detects 'Safedisc v4.00.001 -
v4.00.003)

SecuROM´ed files
- improved: StarForce detection
- improved: UPX detection
- improved: VOB Protect CD/DVD detection completely rewritten
some notes about... SecuROM v7...
well you´ve probably seen SecuROM 7 "versions" displayed like 7.00.00.xxxx.v 5.0c (Protection Update #1)
v6.0 is progressing very well and the changes are incredible but we thought
we should release v5.0c to keep you up to date because protections have
changed...
- added: Safedisc v3.20 - 4.xx detection with removed version
i.e. Need For Speed Underground 2, Flatout, The Lord of The Rings The
Battle For Middle-Earth, Knight Rider 2
- added: 3PLock detection (i.e. Kreed, RTL Ski Jump 2005, RTL Ski Alpine 2005)
(consider our protection as the most proper one because we don´t simply
scan for the section names, we are analysing the exe ;-)
- improved: totally rewritten Safedisc detection (much faster and highly
accurate)
Our goal is to keep you up to date. While continuing work on v6.0 we might put out
some more minor updated v5.0x versions,
depends on how much PC Game protections will change.

v 5.0b (BugFixed)
sorry for the fixed version... but there were some minor annoying bugs in the FiNAL ;-)v 5.0 FiNAL
Don´t get me wrong, I labeled it 'FiNAL' because I released a public Beta some weeks ago.* improved: totally new scanning routines (much faster and more
stable)
* improved: ASPack detection
* improved: FSG
detection
* improved: Krypton detection
* improved: Neolite detection
* improved: PE Compact detection
* improved: PE Lock detection
* improved: PE Shield detection
* improved: Softdefender version checking
* improved: Special EXE Password Protector detection
* improved: Stealth PE detection
* improved: UPX detection (to detect fakes and modified versions)
* improved: VBO Watch detection
* improved: VGCrypt detection
* improved: X-treme Protector v1.00 - v1.07 detection (i.e. Spellforce exe is
protected with v1.06)
* improved: checks if a file was cracked by an iso / dox / rip group
* removed: checks for possible CD-Check API Calls (i got enough CD-Check strings wich
should find the checks)
* removed: scanning exefiles for Tagés (use the proper detection with the cd/dvd
sector scan feature)
* fixed: 4 KB file scanning crash
Aggressive Scan [default: on]
a very usefull feature wich enables you to check if a file is protected by more than
one protection.
Games: i.e. you can check if a SecuROM protected exe also has CD/DVD-Checks
Apps: some crypters are faking / hiding the real protection like Stealth PE.
i.e. if you scan an ASPack
protected file where Stealth PE is used to hide the real protection, both will be
detected by ProtectionID
Context Menu
once enabled in the GUI you are able to scan every (!) file with a right click 'Scan
with ProtectionID...'
CD/DVD scanning
sector scanning only supports Tagés in
v5.0 (for other protections simply scan the programs exe)
file scanning supports all kind of protections.
once ProtectionID is started it will pop up a tray icon.
click on it and select 'Scan File(s) / Folders / CD/DVD' -> 'CD/DVD drive file/
sector' -> your drive letter
Auto - Updates
tray icon -> support -> check for updates
will check if a new update is available and it will be downloaded

'No additional CD/DVD-Checks'
* fixed: Bug in unwrapped SecuROM files wich says 'Protected with additional
CD-Checks' when a certain string was found
