Depends on what you want to do and what kind of protection(s) your after.
If just want to have a unique serial number for each product and verify the
local copy enters the correct serial, then embed a hash in the program.
Your serial dialog will take the serial input and hash it and compare to the
embeded hash in the exe. This is very simple verification and really does
not provide much (if any) protection. There are a few 3rd party
license/serial checkers out there.
