A friend of mine CryptoToad released a thread on another forum of him reversing this, I decided to take a look at this.

For those of you who are interested in what Keyword Bee Pro actually is, read this.

It's completely unobfuscated, on top of this the developers NOT ONLY left a few hardcoded serial keys inside of com.keywordbee.utility.SerialnumberManager.class BUT THEY ALSO have a function which returns a valid serial key called generateSerialNumber() INSIDE OF THAT CLASS.

Instructions:
1) Download http://keywordbee.com/downloads/KeywordBee.zip
2) Extract it, run the program
3) When prompted, enter one of the serial keys below.

Code To Generate New/Valid Keys:

Code:

public class WordbeeKeygen {
    /**
     * Reverse Engineered by @Konloch (http://konloch.me)
     * @return
     */
      public static String generateSerialNumber()
      {
        String serialNumber = "";

        serialNumber = serialNumber + Character.toString((char)(int)(65.0D + Math.random() * 26.0D));
        serialNumber = serialNumber + Character.toString((char)(int)(65.0D + Math.random() * 26.0D));

        for (int i = 0; i < 18; i++)
        {
          int r = 0;

          if (i == 17) {
            long ct = crossTotal(Long.valueOf(serialNumber.substring(2)).longValue());
            r = (int)(9L - ct);
          } else {
            r = (int)(Math.random() * 10.0D);
          }
          serialNumber = serialNumber + r;
        }

        return serialNumber;
      }

      public static boolean isValidSerialNumber(String serialNumber)
      {
        try
        {
          if ((serialNumber != null) && (crossTotal(Long.valueOf(serialNumber.substring(2)).longValue()) == 9L) && (serialNumber.length() == 20))
          {
            return true;
          }
        }
        catch (Exception e) {
        }
        return false;
      }

      private static long crossTotal(long s) {
        if (s < 10L) {
          return s;
        }
        return crossTotal(crossTotal2(s));
      }

      public static void main(String[] args)
      {
          for(int i = 0; i < 50; i++) {
              String s = generateSerialNumber();
              if(isValidSerialNumber(s))
                  System.out.println(s);
          }
      }
      public static long crossTotal2(long s) {
            if (s < 10L) {
              return s;
            }
            return crossTotal(s / 10L) + s % 10L;
      }
}

If you're really interested as of how you would crack this without using one of the valid serial keys (bytecode editing), all you need to do is edit the function com.keywordbee.utility.SerialnumberManager.isValidSerialNumber(String serialNumber) to return a true boolean. (Here's the actual code from that class):

Code:

public static boolean isValidSerialNumber(String serialNumber)
  {
    try
    {
      if ((serialNumber != null) && (crossTotal(Long.valueOf(serialNumber.substring(2)).longValue()) == 9L) && (serialNumber.length() == 20))
      {
        return true;
      }
    }
    catch (Exception e) {
    }
    return false;
  }

As you can see, this program offers only the extreme basics, I recommend anyone beginners learning Java Reverse Engineering who want a real world application to reverse engineer try this.
