hello,
there is a timer on the app PingZapper and i have managed to find the memory location for the timer which changes with the program itself,
i have tried freezing the pointed associated with that memory location but it is not working , can some1 help heres some screenshots.

try nopping the code that writes to it, if it doesn't work read on ...
right click the address, find out what writes ...., select all the codes and click replace, ok.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
it's a protection "trial", a doubt you could crack it that easily, you should learn a little assembly, or wait for someone else to answer
it's most likely to be protected by some anti cheat system.
you're gonna have to crack that first.
the address you have found is just what you see on the screen not the real address.

Fresco knows what he is talking about so I would listen to him

On the other hand the value 5 you are searching for could be the resulting value of a "conversion" function to change the REAL value into a readable 00:00 value on screen.

With these types of things you sometimes need to think about HOW the value may be stored...

for example if I was to write this in VB .NET I would probably do something like
formload - timeopen = unicode timestamp of now

every seconds grab the new unicode timestamp and - the timeopen

you now have a unicode timestamp of the difference in time (time open)

the problem with this is... that when you open the program the "timeopen" is static and there is a good chance you will never find the EXACT value

it is also improbable to find the other variable which changes every second without using a changed, increased search.

Again this is just ONE way which timers are sometimes stored and work within trial programs as the values are a little harder to work out


the way you will probably have to do this is the same way CE does its speed hack (which I think is by hooking the tick dll)

Anyone found something new about Pingzapper? Like arthasdk I found that address (green for me) that is actually about the time shown, not the real timer. I also tried to start with a unknown value then increased value, I found a few more, like 4, addresses (black) that increase at the same time as the green one. I still not tried to freeze them and wait 1 hour to see what happen, but I'm gonna try. I also tried to prevent the switch button going OFF (looking for 0 and 1 values) but unsuccessfully.
Any help?

EDIT: i freezed all addresses about timer but nothin.. still disconnect after 1h
