Hi, Well I am back for now everyone. Anyway, I was reading archives and saw Damien was trying to prevent piracy in ACE Fire. What I could do is, in the demo, force the user to give a valid email address. Then have VB send an email to the person, using CDO, with a code. Once the code is accepted, write a registry entry. This way you can always check when the program loads up for the registry entry. You can also send an email with the user's supplied email to your email (if they enter an email on the vb end, send it to your email). You can send emails through CDO. I also heard about Processor serial numbers. My older computer running XP won't give me the processor number when I try to use a WinApi in vb to get it, it just gives me X's. Thanks! -Ryan S *Rmud is going great*
