well you can't actually kill your program from with in your program. But there are several things you can do to make it happen. First maybe send information to the task sched. that comes with windows. Or like you mentioned, send info to the registry and make it del your program on a specific date or whatever. But as for killing from with in i don't think that's possible. You COULD however del files that are needed by your appl to run...like some dlls and ocx are needed but are not used through out the whole run time, so have them deleted and the next time the user tries to use a certain function it will give him an error and close the program...
