READTHG_-_The_Humble_Thug_cracktro.png‎ (16KB, MIME type: image/png)

The Humble Thug, cracktro screenshot from READTHG.EXE by The Humble Guys.

The header of the executable file (which appears to have been compressed with something like PKlite from PKware) reads: "Cool Hand but fucks his dog and Phantom from INC." Apparently a post-compression hack made by one of the THG members. INC, or International Network of Crackers, was a rival warez group which was in direct competition with THG at the time.

This cracktro loader contains animated text which scrolls from right to left in the lower windowpane. The text reads as follows:

"The Humble Guys would like to Proudly announce the Grand Reopening of The Slave Den BBS. Yes, thats right. The BBS where you love to hate the sysop. Home of the Gay Bashers Association Network.
