Anti Piracy Techniques Questions

[LaVolpe]

Thanks LaVolpe. So by doing it this way is there any way for the hacker to decrypt the code in memory or any other possibilities?

There is always a way.

That "my.web.site" example is probably not really worthwhile. Since you can't send a gibberish url, other simple tools could be used to get what is passed to your server: packet sniffing for example.

What I provided might work well for internal activation/hashing. Instead of passing a string to a hashing/encryption routine, you pass an array. The idea is you don't want to use literals in your activation/validation code.
