Short Intro:
-----------
PESpin is a simple PE protector, compressor coded in Win32ASM using MASM. 
I tried to make PESpin stable and compatible, so if you find any bugs
please let me know about them.
ps. it's just a toy made for fun :)

The Compression library (aPlib v0.36) is copyrighted and coded by Joergen Ibsen
(Homepage: http://www.ibsensoftware.com/) 

Options(short):
-----------
[Add Debugger detection]
PE Spin loader will try to find active debugger.

[Close program after: ... minut]
If you select this option program will close(without any message)  
after time-out value.

[API Redirection]
All refers to import function will be placed somewhere in alloceded memory.

[Section names]
You can choose:
'User name'- type maximum 8 chars or nothing then sections names will be cleared.
'Random know protector,packer'- random name from my small database.
'Don't  rename'

[Antidump protection]
Protect application against code dumping from memory.
I ripped this option off from another packer, protector :)

[Password protection]
Protected file will be encrypted using entered password <6,128> characters.
You need to enter password every time that your program is going to be executed.

[Remove the OEP]
Will try to remove physically few instructions after your Orginal Entry Point(OEP).

[Strip overlays]
Removes the (mostly) useless data at the end of a file.

[Compress resources]
Compress your file's resource section.
If application won't run after selecting this option please send it to me.

[Make backup (*.bak) file]
Very useful option, because I don't have time to test it all day :)
