I'd like to point you to these entries
http://www.unsanity.org/archives/000361.php (about the guy that
deleted home folders)
http://www.unsanity.org/archives/000101.php (has a bunch of pointers
on what developers can do to make it harder to crack their code).
And the number on thing to prevent serial number generation: Never
include the source code of the serial number generator, along with
comments on how to use it in a header included with a framework
inside your project (yes, someone did this once).

2) Make the life of hackers a living hell, but NEVER using
destructive ways to do that. Nice stuff is coding everything related
to the registering in pure C code, using lots of static inline
functions (to make the disassemble harder), have a way to remotely
disable stolen serial numbers, etc, even encrypting the machine code!
NEVER, and I mean NEVER do the file-erasing stuff. Besides being
illegal, you will be hated by the user community, and you will go
out of business quickly. Also, if you live in USA, I wouldn't be
surprised if you were killed by some crazy guy after you trashed all
his stuff (sorry you american guys, but this kind of stuff is way
more common there than in Europe!). Anyway, I know some european
guys that probably would catch a plane to travel your country and
hit you hard! ;-)
