Hi,

First sorry for posting here... This is maybe not the correct newsgroup.
However, I cannot figure out which I should use ;-)

I received the task of providing a way to prevent the usage of your software
solution without being explicitly licensed. This includes preventing the
user of performing a "ghost" and installing again onto another machine
without asking first for a license transfer (So, the license should be
applied for a given machine).

To do so, I do not want to reinvent the wheel again :-)
- Does anyone knows about existing libraries to be used (preferably
non-commercial one)?

Thanks,
José
 
Jose,

I've been using a commercial library for .NET named "Xheo" for a couple
of months now, and it has support for software activation and locking a
software package to a particular computer. The support guy there, named
Paul, has been very helpful.

Yep - I'm sure it's a good product - just make sure you read the light
grey/on white background disclaimer. Seems kind of ironic that a
security licensing company can't secure their own product to a level
that they can accept returns.

It is quite clear on the shopping cart page and checkout pages...every one
of them.

Wish you would have made that just a little more clear on the web site.

Hi Greg,

I'm sorry that you won't be able to use it, but unfortunately we do not
offer refunds. Perhaps you may be able to use it at a later time.

After reviewing it I've deviced we're probably not going to use it. Can

Thanks
