    Hello Everyone,

    As we speak I am having my parental control software developed, But I would like to know how hard it is to do something like on: http://www.sentryparentalcontrols.co.uk/product/

    They have got 3 different packs, now I am interested in how easy it is to limit the number of computers the software can be used for. They have one package that you can download today for a single PC, or one for 3 or more PC's, so how easy is it to do that?

    Thanks

    Jonathan

    Limiting options shouldn't be too hard, but I think it's going to be a problem making the software able for only one day.

    But what language are you getting it programmed in?

    No, you dont understand, I dont want to limit it to one day, I want to limit it to a SINGLE COMPUTER

    All security software websites do it now, they make you activate it with a code, and you cannot use the software twice

    Oh, for limiting to one single computer, I think you could use the a function to receive a uniqie ID/key from the windows registry.
