As I'm sure you've heard, between myself, Maddox, UserLoser, Telos, and TheMinistered, we have reversed the Warcraft 3 and War3xp login, and Maddox has written code which successfully implements it.  

I'm just posting this here so people can confirm rumours they may of heard, and to open it up to discussion (because we're proud).  I didn't put it in botdev, because we aren't really developing anything.  

Anyway, thanks to everybody who helped with this, even if in a small way (Kane, Adron [for explaining __thiscall], and probably others).

There'll be more news in the future about what we're actually going to do with this information.

How long did it take you? And wasn't Skywing and Yoni the first ones to hash WAR3 and W3XP?

Yes, they reversed the new logon system over two years ago.

I worked on it for about a week, but others were working it (with some effort) from about a week or two before that.  

And at no point did I claim to be the first - although I think (though can't confirm) that we're the second.  

Thanks to...
Userloser for telling us it was SRP and doing some dirty packet testing.
Telos for work on the CD-Key decode.
TheMinistered for his work on the interleaved session-key hash.

...and of course iago, for work on the session-key hash, providing over a hundred storm functions, and general collaboration and discussion.

Edit: iago always has a lowercase i.

Bad math, it was released in July of 2002. Beta was different than the current login.

They had reversed NLS v1.00 (beta) in March 2002, which helped lead to a very quick upgrade (couple hours) to NLS v1.01 in June.
