Hi guys,

I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for me. I wanted to implement some sort of licensing system in my vb6 application.

Basically, I want to use a serial number or something similar, and the serial will only work on the computer it is installed on. So I would have to retrieve some sort of unique computer identifier (i.e. unique MAC address, CPU serial number, GUID, etc) to generate a serial number for the system that the application is installed on.

Also, i would not want the user to be able to use the application AT ALL until they enter the correct serial number. (i.e. no time trial, or features disabled)

Any suggestions or additions to this would be appreciated as well.
