- 1. OVERVIEW
- =======================================================
- ACTIVELOCK is an antipiracy tool and a way to get more
- information about your users, all rolled into one
- compact control. Use ActiveLock to disable certain
- features of your application until it is registered
- (the "crippleware" approach), or have the software
- disable itself entirely after a set time ("trialware").
- If your application is strictly freeware, you can use
- ActiveLock to solicit user information. You build the
- forms that ActiveLock uses to interact with the user;
- the control itself just handles what goes on behind
- the scenes. (ACTIVEX.COM DISPATCH - Vol. 3, No. 3)
