This means that we just have the *.exe now, and not longer the *.c and *.h files, which you need to do modifications and to build the exe from. You can theoretically add code to an existing exe. There are ways to extend and to modify it, that`s what basically crackers do. But for modifications you would still need to do lots of reverse engineering because you need to isolate the vital parts.

There is no unlock key anymore. We don`t have the source code. But even when somebody would be able to get the hands on the source code, this baby is the result of several years of developments, with hundrets of thousands of lines of code. And it would take months up to years and a very passionated programmer to find yourself comfortable with this code monster.

Yeah theoretically you can 'create new applications' by attaching and / or replacing dll's. But, it's easier to use something else instead. :)

I just installed the updates for standalone and full 7.61
Full 7.61 looks ok but the standalone only updated to version 2.
