There's another way we used to do it with windows 3.11 and even dos
programs. Set your date about a year or 2 ahead, install the program,
reset your date and it would run beutifully. A lot of programs in those
days used to set the expiry date by the date currently on the system. You
used to be able to get trial versions of programs running for years that way.
Of corse this was in the days when software keys and registration numbers
weren't widely used. Nowadays you just get a registration code of the net.
I've got a couple of programs where the registered user is Somebody or
Nobody.
