    If you mean copy protection, just remember that even Sony can't copy protect their DVDs. You can copy protect a floppy (and only in Windows 95 or DOS) but not a CD or DVD or anything since Windows 98.
    The most difficult part of developing a program is understanding the problem.
    The second most difficult part is deciding how you're going to solve the problem.
    Actually writing the program (translating your solution into some computer language) is the easiest part.
    Please indent your code and use [HIGHLIGHT="VB"] [/HIGHLIGHT] tags around it to make it easier to read.

    Ditto, you will never find one as the reason mentioned. Even Microsoft cant protect their CDs so I doubt that any of us could figure a way.

    It might be an interesting experiment, though. Can a CD be interrupt-formatted?

    You would ned to create your own CD filesystem.

    Needless to say, rather a bother and I'm sure someone would crack it if your app got popular enough.

    Remote (online) verification is the most bulletproof way.
