Hello,

4. When presenting the registration code to the user, use a restricted
character set.

Another thing I found useful... is to somehow incorporate, in plain text, the name of the licensee to the SN... so instead of having an "anonymous" SN... there is a name embedded in it... this will not make your SN any more secure or anything... but... a licensee is more likely to think twice before distributing a "personal" SN with its name in it... YMMV.

Cheers,

PA.
