(thats what i do).. it is another pain in the butt for hackers.. does RegCode (or RegKey) do this? if i register my app, with user id say "aaron", then change to "ardiri" - does the registration get lost? (with my registration package, it does). 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
