Hi Paul,
This is described in the release notes for the patch. This is also
mentioned in the patch installer's first window.
* The CodeWarrior IDE and several of the components are now validated
against a license file that is installed on your computer. This file
is called "license.dat" and it must exist in the directory above the
CodeWarrior IDE.
The license file is installed along with the other patch components by the
installer. This license key file is _required_ in order to run the patch IDE
and several of the components. It does not affect the components in any
other way i.e. it does not spawn a Melissa virus, does not create cookie
monsters, etc :-)
Hope this helps,
JK Lam
