First of all, I am not 'Qwe'. I thought it was quite obvious, I am Harry Sintonen or 'Piru', not 'Qwe'.
In the text on your website, someone (you?) writes what should be changed in the Elbox driver code to use this driver without Elbox restrictions. (These restrictions allow their usb driver working ONLY with the Spider card hardware.)
I don't see such instructions or source code. I see some speculation what could be the reason for the protection to exist in the first place (1st paragraph of the 'History' section).
Where do you see these alleged instructions?
Do you remember the email on the Mediator list with info how to break the Poseidon registration restrictions?
No.
It could have something to do with the fact that I a) don't own a Mediator, nor have ever owned one b) don't read the Mediator mailing list.
but you also include a tool for decrypting the code of this driver,
That is true.
which is necessary for cracking it.
That is true, aswell.
It would be necessary to decrypt the driver if you were to crack it. I see no such thing anywhere on the webpage, however. If someone uses this tool for illegal purposes, it is not my fault, now is it? Also note that I do not host any Elbox software (pirated or otherwise), or tools/instructions on how to crack Elbox sw.
Anyway, the tool was obviously written to prove the claim that the driver contained such RDB trashing code. It can't even produce a working decrypted binary!
As a conclusion: Regardless what motives lead to finding of the RDB trashing code, it does not invalidate the findings.
People deserve to know.

Sorry, it is not my busines...
Well, STFU then and let the moderators take care of the situation?
Still, I wonder why moderators of Amiga.org allow you to post links to such texts here.
I would think the reason they don't prevent me from linking to it is that they agree there is nothing dubious on the abovementioned web page.

Why not?
Because it's physically impossible?
The $200000 - $9FFFFF area is not used by A1200 motherboard at all. So what speed turbo card accesses this area depends on the hardware design of the turbo card only.
So the turbo card magically gets brain wave access to the area, without any need to send signals via wires or such silly stuff?
All accesses from the turbo card to this area are directed only to the external hardware (like Zorro II, Zorro IV or Mediators) connected to the CPU slot. If external hardware acknowledges cycles immediately (the case of the Mediator WAIT jumper opened), there is obvious that the speed at which this hardware is accessed is limited by the turbo card interface hardware only.
Newsflash: There are certain timing requirements for accelerators using the CPU slot interface, and if you break them the accelerator will not work.
This is quite obvious.

Oops, missed it, sorry. You should have a reply now.
