Well, if by higher it has >0 security, yes, that's true. I've never understood why anyone running an NT-based version of Windows (and not dual booting) would use anything other than NTFS in the first place. But most of the authorization methods I have read about do *not* use anything related to the file system, which seems pretty irrelevant to profiling a system. It's only storage, and the type of file system is something that ought to be irrelevant to the software registration. Perhaps there's something involved in Finale's authorization scheme that is based on the way the Finale files are written to the disk, so that, say, re-partitioning your hard drive to have smaller sector sizes would trigger the problem as well. -- David W.
