    You could implement a system so that each key is dependent on the customer's computer name and user name. The licensed users could generate a valid registration key from your website that would work only on their computer.

    you must use a strong encryption which you can control online.people must login everytime they use their software.however this creates too much problem if your authorize server goes down.so be careful with that setup.
