Hi There,

| like all of you). I just found a crack for my app that removes the

In all honesty, there is no such thing as a failsafe copy
protection scheme.
Hackers will ALWAYS crack your software if you try to protect it.
So don't
protect it.
My *personal* stance is to make a demo version available which has
features
completely omitted - no 30 trial, no features that can be "unlocked",
because if that code is not even in the app, there's nothing to hack.
Shareware is a good model, but it's just not safe these days. There
are so
many hacker groups trying to out-hack one another that they'll
practically
hack *anything*.
Only send out a full version of your software (and protect it with
a key
code if you like) to people who have already purchased.
I do the same. Simply remove the code that saves, prints and other
key features. It makes no sense to crack it.
/Claes
Mark.
