I have this application and i want to see the serial number. Now when ever i use IDA pro and open the exe file, it runs up to a point and then starts looping. How can i let it jump to the next cycle. All the three loops have the same content.
Thanks

If you are intending on cracking an application, you need to take this discussion to a more appropriate forum.  OpenRCE was formed with the desire to educate people on the subject of reverse engineering code, not the specifics of cracking software as that is both illegal and immoral.

If you are in-fact not trying to perform such a feat, then you best bet is to read up on anti-reverse engineering and debugging techniques.  There is a better than average chance what you are encountering is one or really both of them simultaneously.  I would recommend diving through the "Reference Library" (See column to the far left of OpenRCE) and understanding the material there within.  

Once you understand better what you are dealing with and can more accurately elaborate the situation, I think you will find OpenRCE a more responsive forum.  One must put forth effort on their own before a broader community will embrace them and put forth effort to thelp them.  It is not an ego thing, you just must understand those you encounter here have mostly spent disproportionate amount of time learning on their own and as such expect nothing less of others.  Read it as a right of passage for lack of better description.  Plus, it has the added advantage of extending your own personal knowledge, which is absolutely a good thing.
