You don't need to keep posting new threads every time you release new versions, just have one thread and keep updating it.

This looks pretty nice. I may actually consider purchasing it later on when I get close to finishing my game.

Err... I tried to install the free version but my firewall (Avira) yells TR/Dropper.Gen trojan when running the install program.

It is a false positive. We will inform Avira about it and request to fix this.

Edited: Avira confirmed it was clean

Please try it again and let me know the result.

Ok, I've made some test with it, it works wondefully. Of course the free version can be cracked,so before buying, I just want to know about your "secure zone protection", what happens if I just kill its process for example?

The files are in a hidden zone so shouldn't be visible.

The next version of Smart Packer will even have an improved Secure Zone protection (uses a virtual filesystem). More details will follow later.

And of course it will be a free upgrade for existing customers.

There are a lot of applications which also get a false positive of Avira. For example this is also the case with Purebasic.

Do you get the message when creating a Smart Packered executable or starting one?

I get it once the executable is packed. I know that's Avira's fault but users may be afraid using my packed game if they get such alerts.

Can you send the packed executable zipped via e-mail to me? I will take a look at it.
By the way is Secure Zone enabled?

In the meantime you can also upload it to Avira.

What could be faster? The loading of the demo or the game play?

Cool! What is 'virtual zone'? Do you mean protected files are extracted in memory then executed? Are mails sent?
