Thank you Josef (and MW Ron) for your quick replies. This is good news and
the method you are using is really fair.

It was just a bit unlucky to use the phrase "activation" without immediate
explanation, because this word does give the impression that it is some kind
of virtual dongle or interlock technology.

It once happened to me that I suddenly needed to dig out an 8 year old
program to do a slight modification to an old file - the program itself was
out of fashion and out of distribution for many years, and there is no trace
of the company that once coded it... if there would have been a "virtual
dongle" then I'd be lost.

I do hope that your company lasts forever, but... well times are sometimes
rough, and you'll never know...

This is why I strictly avoid this technology, even if it means that I need
to stop using a program.

I'll buy the update this week :-)
