It went from a nice app name folders to random numbers, folders that look like a WINDOWS serial.

Anyone know what I mean?

When you cyber duck into your iphone and then app's folder, it would give you the PROGRAM names, now it looks like this..

Any ideas? I ask as I want to know where hidden files are placed, example, there is a crac ked Easy Sleep program that I want to try, if it works, I will buy it, but the version cracked is older and even though I deleted anything I could find, from this program, it somehow is seeing something hidden on the file - am also concerned about the why the Application folder went from Application names to random numbers that looks likes windows registry.

This is what the AppStore purchased apps always looked like. You might be comparing them to how they look in the /Applications directory rather than the /private/var/mobile/Applications. Only Cydia downloaded and Stock apps usually have nice names on their folders and are in the aforementioned /Applications. Everything you get from apple has those crazy random tags that iTunes gives them when you sync your device (or something along those lines). Unfortunately there is no easy way to find an app in that list besides going through each one.

Good luck searching.

Quite right. Big difference with App Store apps folder name and Cydia downloads.
