This is simply a tutorial I cant tell you how to fully null the software but with this you can install it on a test server that doesnt have internet access. You have to edit one file or you can use the script provided. I lost all my files for my PC when I had to re-install vista due to windows 7 so I hacked my vbulletin so I could do a test install of the new version. this authen script is for 3.8.2 Enjoy no more keygens.
Look in upload/install/authenticate.php
