LOL O_O it's even worse than protecting with serials...etc... have you ever heard about virtual cd programs? what they do is just completely copy the raw image of your cd to a file, then a guy using that program gets additinial drive when he opens "My Computer" lol... and he doesn't need your CD anymore. It's worse because there is no need to generate keys, patches, etc.. to make your commercial program work, they would just copy the CD's image. and distribute it on the net. Cheers.
