Good thing you're in the USA, and it's not difficult for you to contact
them.
Hahahaha...good one, John.
I'm in Canada. E-mail is pretty international anyhow.
Speaking as one who's had to maintain something like this from the
developer side, (in my misspent youth, doing tech support for a
mass-market paint program that used a damaged disk for copy protection) I
can tell you that it was a ROYAL pain in the posterior. Key problems
were easily eating up 2/3 of our tech support department's time. Most of
the time, to fix the customer's problem, we ended up shipping them an
unprotected copy.
That _is_ a misspent youth :)
That's interesting...PiXELS doesn't seem to be having that kind of trouble,
but then, I don't work there. Depends on how it's implemented and how
lucky they are, I guess.
