This is the first chapter of the series and as any basic reversing series it's always necessary to remark the obvious or important.

First is that everything that I try to teach here is merely for educational reasons, whatever you decide to do with the content of the lessons is your own responsibility and no one else; I'm not interested into showing you how to crack this or that software. Piracy is a crime and we are here for learning, not for trying to get Office or Windows activated for free and waking up the next day sharing a prison cell with a fellow that lost an eye and his best friend is a dirty pillow.
