Program: WINPASS For: Windows 98 TI-83 Gold Edition, version 2.10 Version: 2.3 Author: Matthew Varga e-mail: einsteiniq200@hotmail.com !!WARNING!! ----------- This upgrade is for Windows 98 TI-83 Gold Edition, version 2.10 ONLY! It will not operate without version 2.10. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Requirements: Windows 98 TI-83 Gold Edition, version 2.10 WINPASS, version 2.X TI graph link w/cable ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Installment: This program is a MUCH more advanced version then version 2.2. It includes patchs which must be ran first. Without running the patches will cause version 2.3 not to operate. Follow these steps to install: -Send UPGRADE.83g to you calculator >Select OVERWRITE ALL VARIABLES -Run "prgmAAPSETUP" >Delete program -Run "prgmPATCH" >Delete program **COMPLETE** Now it is patched. If for some reason you loose you memory, or Clear all Entries, then you must run WIN98B, then you send the patch programs to you calculator again. WIN98B does not put the passwod combination together properly, that is why you must run the patch. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- About the program: This program accepts only ONE combination, like version 2.2, but it codes the password differantly each time you start the program. You enter your same passwod each time, but when it is stored it is coded. This program ENCODES you PIN differently each time, and ENCODES the DECODER-CODE differently each time. So it would take a long time to figure out the the code. These are the steps that someone breaking into Windows 98 must do: -Be at a computer! -Know how the coding patterns operate. -Find where the coded DECODER value is -Figure out mathamatically how to use the value to decode the DECODER. -Find where the RANDOM coded PIN number is. -Figure out the DECODING stored patterns -Figure out how to mathamatically how to decode the PIN. -Find the CODING pattern -Decode the PIN -Change the key values to the actuall key -Enter the password correctly These are alot of steps to take for someone to decode your password. It is possible to crack ANY password program, but I made it expecially hard to do that. WINPASS is just like version 2.2, but it has MORE. Nothing has been removed, but only added. There is another way to crack the program, but it is even more harder. You could make you own password, but you have to write it in coded form. If someone does not have the script with them, and they only have your calculator, it is 100% IMPOSSIBLE to break in. They cannot look at the program, since it is locked, and thay cannot possible know how to decode the code, or write their own. I GUARANTEE that this program will perform the way it should, unless someone has studied the program, and know exactly what to do. No password program is perfect. Make sure you delete the patch programs, and WIN98B off of your calculator. It is possible to break into your calculator if you have these programs on you calculator. This is what someone can do to break into Windows (and you if you forgot your password): -Clear All Lists -Run WIN98B >Enter the registration number >Create their own code -Run AAPSETUP -Run PATCH -Start Windows -Enter their own password. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Disclaimer: THIS PROGRAM SHOULD NOT CAUSE ANY PROBLEMS. IF IT DOES I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE. YOU PUT THIS ONTO YOUR CALCULTOR AT YOUR OWN RISK. If you found any bugs, or have comments, or questions. e-mail me. einsteiniq200@hotmail.com (This program will lock you out if you enter your password incorrectly three time. E-mail me if this happens to you)
