AUTHENTICITY VERIFICATION FEATURE
The Authenticity Verification information you receive from PKWARE will
include two AV Serial Numbers and one checksum. The Serial Numbers
include BOTH letters and numbers. ALL LETTERS in the Serial Numbers are
LOWER CASE.
After both Serial Numbers are entered using the PUTAV.EXE, the program
will return a checksum value. This checksum must match the one provided
by PKWARE. If the checksums do not match, then the installation was not
performed correctly and PUTAV.EXE should be run again to ensure that the
Serial Numbers and Name were entered correctly.
If you run PUTAV.EXE and you encounter the error, "ERROR IN PKZIP.EXE",
verify that you are running PUTAV on the registered version of PKZIP.EXE.
AVEXTRA.TXT
With the PKZIP 2 Authenticity Verification feature, additional text can be
displayed on subsequent lines following the verification message. An
ASCII text file named AVEXTRA.TXT is created containing the additional
text you want displayed. When the AVEXTRA.TXT file is in the current
directory when you use the "PKZIP -!" option, PKZIP will add this text to
the .ZIP file and PKUNZIP will display it after the normal Authenticity
Verification message. The Authenticity Verification feature is available
only to registered users of PKZIP.
