debugger detection in newbin.

[Rein Klazes]

Hi,

The latest version of newsbin 4.1B5 refuses to run, displaying
"debugger or monitoring tool detected".

The detection code is very simple, immedeately at the program entry
point 0x516000 it does (intel syntax):

| Disassembly of 0x00516000
| 0x51600D: 64A023000000   mov      al,fs:[0x23]                  
| 0x516013: EB03           jmp      0x516018          
| ;***************************************************
| 0x516018: 84C0           test     al,al             
| 0x51601A: EB03           jmp      0x51601f          
| ;***************************************************
| 0x51601F: 7567           jnz      0x516088          

This jump is taken and leads immedeatly to the messagebox displaying the
message above.

Any idea's and/or explanation?

Rein.
