This is too bad. Another developer did something similar last year and it caused such an uproar that he was essentially shamed out of business.

Why don't you just have one button "Quit." It's ridiculous to give the user an option of deleting all their files. Of course they don't want to !

Hi,
I have just discovered that my application has been cracked. I want to
modify my code. If my app detectes that it has been cracked because some
variables are turned on but some other are still off (impossible when
properly registered), I show a dialog to the user saying that this program
has been cracked and if he continues the program will delete all the files
from the disk. The dialog has 2 buttons: Quit (predefined) and Continue. If
the user presses Quit, the application quits, but if he presses the button
Continue, my application really deletes all the files from the disk?



Can I do that? Is this legal? Who should I ask to? Am I too bad?
