| Any tricks up your sleeves that will help beat the piraters? Those long codes are seemingly very easy to c r a c k with the help of a dedicated nerd.. Know of any breakthroughs in the technology of protecting payware FS addons? |

| Sadly, there is no such thing as 100% security. Name one popular product that is classified as "un-crackable." |

Okay, perhaps there is not a cure-all in terms of software protection (yet...who knows...)
But how about ways to slow down piraters, like requiring a new access key every month or so. Something along that line, something to renew your purchase. |

That would be a pain in the backside... and I for one would not buy any Ammended (Payware) that had that stipulation, anyway, thats not for us to worry about, it's down the produers.........

| Unfortunately I guess there are just no effective ways to protect against piracy :( Even Microsoft cannot do anything effective with all their available resourses. |
