Hi All,

The 'Product Activation' search has revealed a lot of interesting result. Has anyone looked at this? http://www.pcworld.com/downloads/file/fid,46974-page,1-c,utilities/description.html

According to the advertisement, "Anti Piracy 2004 offers unprecedented level of protection for applications...".

I don't believe I would make such a spectacular claim...

According to their own information:

The system consists of client and server parts. The server part is installed on Microsoft IIS server. It handles the users' database, providing live licensing data to the client part. The client part (available as a DLL to be distributed with you product) acts real smart: once the application loads, it sends a query to the server including the current registration code and hardware digest. The server either responds with OK, or blocks given registration code, returning the reason for code lock-up. This way, it is easy to implement any type of licensing: from single copy usage only to multiple licenses per one registration code. What is actually a brilliant idea is that the client DLL can pass the server query result to your application. Deciding what to do with illegal user is up to you! AntiPiracy 2004 supports all protection systems and registration codes formats available today. It comes with comprehensive manual and code examples for most popular programming languages.

I don't see where they have either updated their software or their claims and they offered a "free" trial.

Regards,
