I've realized that you can limit the software to run on specific
computers
by limiting using the serial number of the machine. how secure is
it? can
someone crack the software by avoiding the "if statement" that does
the
check? How can I secure my checks.
First thing - Apple and their devout followers will tell you "don't
do that" when it comes to ANY protection. Ironic since as they have
DSMOS and PT_DENY_ATTACH on iTunes etc.
