    Arrow Help deleting the program

    Hi! I know this is going to sound weird, but I want to show this program I'm making to a friend of mine and I don't want her to keep the program.... So, is there any way to make the program "commit suicide" during/after closure?

    Thanks in advanced!

    By suicide I mean to delete itself...

    Provide an encrypted file with the app and edit the file before closing. Test the contents of the file when starting up and refuse to run if it doesn't contain the original data.
