mhhhh.... I don't trust it too much, and it's usually defeated using some emulator like vmware and also in wine....

Btw, the problem of changing an hard disk / network card is there, and you can't do anything about it.
If customer is "smart" he can tell you he changed something and ask for a new auth code, and you can't say simply no....

Hello Massimo

It is true. Anyway if when asking for the key the user sends you all that info (encrypted):
- you know if it is run on a virtual system. You can deny it
- If they say they changed the HD, you will see everything unchanged but the HD code Smile

- Nowadays all PCs have an embedded network hardware so you have a MAC. It is of course possible to change the MAC, but computers with the same MAC cannot live in the same network Smile

.

They can purchase PC clones with the same MAC unconnected to LAN or Internet... well but different HD so ... Smile

. It is very difficult to handle.

Because of it I think it is worthwhile to have the key in a file. Many people does it alone or combining it with a web authentication just when Internet is available.

Best regards
Iñaki
