I have come across one program called "PicBasic" which uses some PC 
Specific information that you send back to them and they send you a key.
What ever the software they use for the protection, its pretty good. I 
actually own the app. but was interested to see how strong it was, and 
beleive me, after about 2hrs of constantly hacking and playing, i could 
not crack it....so whatever it is, its great. I wanted to use the 
software for a project I have just finished, but the problem is that I 
cant make it PC specific.
But its the only one I have never been able to work out how they do it.
There used to be another one called VBOX that Symantec used to use. All 
that did was throw a chunck of code into your exe, so when you knew this, 
you just took that code out...needless to say i never used THAT software.

Like I have already mentioned, I use ICE License, and its pretty good. I 
have looked at LockBox, but its not as easy to use as ICE....IMHO
