Well, in my opinion reading a tutorial on how to work around a registration system is boring in my opinion and has not purpose other than to create and use and illegal copy.

Now if you were interested in using it as a learning process heres what you would do. Google "cheap dvd burning software" or something so you can find cheap $20 software to start with. Learn ASM. Through it into IDA Pro Demo and get working.
