Scan your CD's - Protection Scan by DoMiN8ToR (c) 1999 - 2000
Note: Since this is an Active X control it will only work with Microsoft
Internet Explorer!!
This tool is also available for download here (30 KB).
.
Getting started:
Security... You probably have to change your security settings of Microsoft
Internet Explorer. You can do this by double-clicking the globe, right below in
the status bar, and then selecting low or very low, you can also get there by
going to Internet Options and select the security tab. It is recommended to
change this setting back when you are done.
It is also possible that a message box will appear that tells you that your are
planning to launch an Active X control and it maybe unsafe. If you do not trust
us you'd better select no, if you want to run the program you can click yes.
Another possibility is that Internet Explorer says that the page uses an Active
X control and that the page could not be loaded as it should be, ignore this and
click OK !
Select drive... Before you can press the Scan button you have to select the CD
Drive that you want to scan. The program will only detect the drives that
contain a CD. It is possible that it goes mad if your CD's are damaged or if
it's a non PC CD. (like Playstation or audio)
Hit reload when you want to scan another CD.
Scan... When it does detect the drives you have, select a drive in the drop
down list and hit the Scan button. The program will not send anything to the
internet. Once it works on your computer, it runs on your PC, and has nothing to
do with our server, so no fear of you sending information to us. If we are going
to collect test results of this program, we will warn you, but that will be on
(possible) future releases.
How it works... You probably want to know how it works. When you are accessing
this page, your browser will download a small application (20 Kb) that is stored
on our server. Your browser will automatically unpack and execute the
application. The application will scan for CD ROM drives and puts them in a
list. Once you have hit the san button it will check the CD for known protection
characteristics and will tell you the protection if it has found something.
The application can only determine:
Safe Disc
Secure
Laser Lock
Cyclops
Illegal Toc
More information can be found on our copy-protection page.
Revolutionary... You probably think why no-one else has come up with this kind
of application, well the answer is very simple, everyone could have made this
application but probably nobody has thought about it before. Copy protections
can also be found without this application, but because of the amount of
questions about this, we think that this can be very helpful. We also tested
some stand alone versions (.exe files that run on every windows 9x computer) but
because of the chance we have to update a lot we decided that online scanning is
the way we should use !
Some additional Information: special thanks to Stack Overflow, for helping me
with the SecuROM protection (Although it was a stupid mistake :) and also thanks
to WaxWeazle member of Laxity for additional information.
The application is used on your own risk, we are not responsible for damages
made by the application, although WE wouldn't know how it can damage your PC.
The application is part of CD Freaks and may not be used on other sites without
our written consent. You can contact us at info@cdfreaks.com for more
information. For additional copyright information see below...
