2.1. Software Vendors Closed the Exploit

Most software that Neilfun targeted used a common licensing library (e.g., .NET Reactor, VMProtect, or simple registry checks). Neilfun reverse-engineered these and distributed a patched .exe or .dll file. However, software vendors began updating their protection mechanisms. A patch that worked for version 12.5 would fail on version 12.6. Users then reported: “Neilfun patched” — meaning the patch no longer bypasses registration.
