Hi Fabio,
I'd say your english was pretty good :)
If you're going to try and fight people who are not going to pay for
your application, you're probably going to lose!
Remember that if they delete your app, and reinstall it, your counting
process will get reset unless you leave something behind in preferences,
or a hidden database of some kind.
The solution I use, is to keep my "locked out flag" in application
preferences.  It's just a number that gets increased every time an alarm
goes off in my application, which is set for every 10 minutes.
So my trial period is always how many ten minute units they are allowed
to have run my program for before it gets locked out.
If they delete my app, and reinstall it, the app still finds this
"hidden" number in preferences, and refuses to run.
Of course, this won't beat a hard reset, and also won't beat the most
determined "I'm not paying no matter how much work he put into it" clan.
Some of the people you're up against will put more time (and time is
money!) into finding a way of not paying than the application actually
costs.
Hope this helps.
John Sutton
