    update of application by exchanging the executable: license problem

    Hallo,
    I would like to implement an automatic update for my distributed vb6 software (standard exe) by just exchanging the executable on the user's computer without a complete new installation.
    But when starting the exchanged exe file now the message appears that there is no software license anymore for my program to start. Furtheron the internet connection of the msinet.ocx of my application is blocked now.
    Does anybody know what else has to be done that the executable is accepted or 'registered' at Windows system again?
    I suppose that anything like the CLID, UUID or GUID of my application has to be updated in the registry as well!?...
    Remark: I thought this number would only be relevant in relation with activex components!...

    Thank you very much for your help!
    Best wishes, Softterrier
