Is there a program/script that will help me in licensing a product? I would like to be able to put a snippet of code on everypage and have it check against a file on my server for a license key/serial number and if not, then display a message that it is unregistered. I am looking for ASP or Javascript.

We have what your looking for in a form in PHP/MySQL. The best results is a licensing system which is also encrypted after distribution. It would be too easy for a simple programmer to UN-INCLUDE the security check for the license code system if not encrypted.

Let me know.

Xheo seems to be pretty good and it's designed for .NET, not PHP/MySQL.

Thanks, Xheo looks good, too bad I don't know .NET too well. I have Visual Basic .NET...do you know of a good tutorial to get me started?

I have been researching different methods of activating/licensing and whilst scouring the web fell upon this thread.

I have no personall experience of the Xheo product but fond the two following links which may interest people reading this thread.

I hope this allows people to make an more informative decision.
