Alistair,
You might get some additional security by compressing the .EXE. We use a
product called Aspack which compresses the .EXE (code and resources)
and then decompresses it again as it loads into memory. This would make it
harder to find the registration code. We use it here mostly because the
smaller .EXE files load more quickly across a LAN and are easier to
distribute. Our 3.8MB program turned into a 1.1MB program.
