I should point out though that this is an operating system issue, not an issue with Virtual CDRW. Chris is correct that it is not fixed under Lion but Mountain Lion users won't have any problems.
We should also let you know that unlike most programmes, you do not use the main software itself to register. Instead, you use the registration.app bundled on the CD image you downloaded. And the good news is that it's perfectly accessible, and I have done tests to this effect with the developer who is very flexible. I an also report that although this software is name "Virtual CDRW", there is no limit or restriction on the size of your virtual disk. Therefore, you could create a virtual DVD without a problem.
