    Unhappy Protect VB Program

    I have made a program using VB6 and my query is that I want to protect it using a USB Dongle. I dont want to buy any dongle from the market. I want to convert my usb flash drive into dongle.
    I found one software named AntiDuplicate Drive Maker but I am interested in getting a freeware software like that.
    If you know any piece of code to do the same them please tell me that also but software is preffered.

    Re: Protect VB Program

    Your problem is that anything doable is undoable, there's no getting around that with off-the-shelf flash sticks. One option you might have is to put the code on there then PHYSICALLY write protect the drive on the PCB inside (most drives have a write-protect switch, you could branch/break the connection as required), but even that is undoable if the person has an understanding of how the stick works. Using the drive's identification details aren't much of an option because it can be modified on another drive to mimic your original.
    Well, everyone else has been doing it :-)

    If I have helped you, RATE ME! :-)

    I love helping noobs with their VB problems (probably because, as an amateur programmer, I am only slightly better at VB than them :-)) but if you SERIOUSLY want to get help for free from a community such as VBForums, you have to first have a grounding (basic knowledge) in VB6, otherwise you're way too much work to help...You've got to give a little if you want to get help from us, in other words!

    And we DON'T do your homework. If your tutor doesn't teach you enough to help you make the project without his or her help, FIND A BETTER TUTOR or try reading books on programming! We are happy to help with minor things regarding the project, but you have to understand the rest of it if you want our help to be useful.
