hej! just a little warning for people who wish to use the HotSync name as a registration key: http://www.rhein-main.de/people/collin/palmpilot/change_hotsync_name.c i suggest what you do is ensure that you dont just set a bit saying they are registered once they enter in the registration code. http://www.rhein-main.de/people/collin/palmpilot/palmname.zip Colin Mulliner has developed a little program to allow the user to change his or her HotSync name (not that there is anything wrong with that!) :)) - sometimes i can see the need for it! i can see an army of people thinking "hey, if that program uses my HotSync name, i can change it temporarially and then register!! :) - then i can change back.. and i have full access to software.. all i need to do now is get a list of valid HotSync and regCode combinations. what i do in my developments is ALWAYS check the registration code - it takes like 1/100 of a second to run through my byte mutation. if the HotSync username changes, so does the program access. - they will need a new code, and need to email me for a replacement. just a warning.. ensure you are ready to protect your software at all costs! :)) these people will be NON-HACKERS - and it is very simple to change the HotSync username with this application! ps: Colin - this is not a personal attack to you, i am just doing what you outline at the bottom of your own pages - considering how to ensure the security of our shareware software. cheers. az. -- Aaron Ardiri Lecturer http://www.hig.se/~ardiri/ University-College i G�vle mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] SE 801 76 G�vle SWEDEN Tel: +46 26 64 87 38 Fax: +46 26 64 87 88 Mob: +46 70 352 8192 A/H: +46 26 10 16 11
