Dongles are cracked just as quickly. Accounting software however, generally has a 6 month update cycle for tax purposes, meaning that u need a new cracked version every six months. Hence most pyr8s don't bother.
For a quick solution, force an update cycle. Meaning that your app times out after 6 months, and the user needs to get an upgraded version using their serial number.
