First of all, I would like to give credit to the reverse engineering team board, even though I never post any message there, but their board contains invaluable information to help me complete this task. Please notice that I share this information only for educational purpose and only as a note for myself. If you have trouble, please don't ask me. Go to the board instead. :)
Gladly, the usb key type is HASP HL Basic, which is simpler to emulate. Here is the step I've done to successfully emulate the usb key:
- Get the password-1 and password-2 of the usb key
Tool required: hasploger
Plug the usb key and run hasploger. Then, execute the protected software. Hasploger will be able to get the password-1 and password-2 of the usb key. - Dump the usb key (password-1 and password-2 from step (1) are required)
Tool required: h5dmp
The size of the dump file is 719 bytes (hasp.dmp) - Create dummy memory file
Tool required: any, notepad text editor is also possible
Since hasp HL Basic does not contain memory, create file with any content with size 112 bytes (hhl_mem.dmp) - Convert the dump file from step (2) and (3) to registry file to be used by emulator
Tool required: UniDumpToReg - Install emulation
Tool required: I am using multikey_19.0.2-x86 to emulate the key in vista (32bit). While in XP I am using vbus_0.15.4.
By using the example of registry file from multikey/vbus, modify the registry file from step (4). Then, install the registry and the emulation tool. - Done.
All of the tools are available freely in the internet, however, it takes time to find.
That's all :)
Update #1 (2010/11/03)
I've just realized that I miss-typed when I checked my files,the correct multikey file that I was using is multikey_18.0.2-x86. Probably there's a new update now since it had been months.
That's all :)
