That's the thing: they probably wouldn't go the route of trying to
figure
out your keys.
So how would they do it? They couldn't just create their own
registration
without knowing the keys, and if some cracker bought a copy, then
distributed
the encrypted form, it would'nt work because the serial number(s)
wouldn't match.
In any case, if they bought an unlimited license that didn't check the
serial, I
would be happy enough just to get whatever huge amount of money I'd
charge.
Thanks,
