Hi George,

I never heard of that. If I read correctly between your lines, your are looking 
for a method to protect your custom plugin from copying and unauthorized usage. 
Maybe you can implement some kind of encrypted input key, that can only be fed 
correctly by your host application? If this input isn't filled in correctly 
your plugin will refuse to work. To make it hard to hack, there should be a 
output from the plugin where the input value should relay on, so that on every 
start of your plugin the key is different. With this you would have to run your 
plugin for some render cycles before it can determine if its in the host app or 
not.

best,
