yeah but then your program would not be flashable. The CRC is not a bad idea but
everytime you make an update to your program you have to update the CRC - annoying.
The question is, is it really worth it to put so much effort into hacker prevention? I
dont think any shareware developer is going bankrupt and having to live in the street
because somebody did not pay the $10 registration fee. People who use hacked software
wouldnt be buying it in the first place so you are not really loosing anything.
Anyway, if you see that PC programs that use a hardware key (dongle) are also cracked
then I dont think there is any hope for the Palm platform.
