Why use Softice over Olly?

[zEr0]

yes

i have the same opinion as many of us here

it's very very necessary to have many various tools, so it's good to have both of this debugger

then you can choose

i agree that olly is more comfortable than SICE and is much less anti Olly tricks than SICE antidebug

SI is good & Olly is good,but run on problem

olly is better than Sice, it's much easier to use.

olly works in ring3 and si works in ring0

I can't even get SoftICE to work, so I really don't know the difference.

OllyDbg is working in USER MODE, and S-ICE is working in Kernel MODE(RING3 and RING0).

Olly is easy for newbies but SI is better. I think.

olly is free, sice is very difficult to get the latest version.
i prefer the simple olly, and used sice only when olly cant do a thing.

May be it can Inside Kernel

I personally prefer SoftIce for debugging programs. I only use Olly for debugging the app while I am coding a Keygen for it, so I can code the Key Algo and check what must be done whitout stopping the whole system.

Softices docs show the line and where it is that starts softice.
I used older v 3.63 and I used to just comment out the startup line and reboot the computer. When softice is needed, just take the comments off
and reboot again. It isn't elegant, but it will let you have softice on your computer without it running all of the time. The line used to be in the autoexe.bat file on my old win98se I think.
