Re: Serial Numbers/Copy Protection



You should also consider copy protection as a support issue as well. How much will it cost you to develop a structure to authenticate/ reply to lost passwords, etc?

The real question is this - is there a way to copy protect a widget?

Assuming that your widget is designed to use internet resources anyway there's very little drawback to having it poll a page on a webserver which you control to check registration status. The major caveat is that this server then becomes the single point of failure for your widget so it'd probably be best to check only the first time a widget is run.
