I thought of, and implemented that, years ago. I issued license "images" that worked wonders. Easy for the user to register, just drag and drop, and difficult to crack as well. No text key was ever used, the image simply contained the user's name. Changing that was trivial, but made no difference because my algorithm never used it. The data was hidden in the pixels, which I never saw cracked.
Not to say it's not impossible, but it stood up very well. And yes, I did it using REALbasic. -- Thom McGrath, <http://www.thezaz.com/> "Only those who have the patience to do simple things perfectly will acquire the skill to do difficult things easily." - Johann Freidreich Von Schiller On Apr 7, 2007, at 2:38 PM, Guyren Howe wrote: > This is a brilliant idea: > > <http://switchersblog.com/2007/04/05/license-keys-mac-style-1passwd- > introduces-new-license-cards.html> > > Anyone on this list familiar enough with the issues who can roll us > some steganography code for REALbasic? _______________________________________________ Unsubscribe or switch delivery mode: <http://www.realsoftware.com/support/listmanager/> Search the archives: <http://support.realsoftware.com/listarchives/lists.html>
