does anybody know how to make the program as a single user
installation, meaning that the program only can install on one pc but
can't on others pc?? 6 3208
You could do that with the help of a CD and a key diskette and have the
program write on the diskette somewhere that it has been
installed...the refore to install to another computer, the program must be
uninstalled from it's original computer first.

Except that disk-imaging software can get around that pretty easily.

He means that if you rely on a key diskette or CD to protect your software,
a pirate can just use disk-imaging software (Symantec Ghost, for example)
to make an exact copy of your key disk. Verrrrry weak protection.

Use a dongle (a hardware device that must be connected to the computer
for the program to run). Have it connect to a server on the internet and
send some hardware specific information in order to register.
Unfortunately, there is no protection that can truly get around a
determined cracker. Go to any warez newsgroup and you will see literally
thousands of programs posted that have had their respective protection
schemes broken by crackers - passwords, time limits, dongles, CD checks,
server verification - all rendered ineffective.
On an unrelated note, please take the time to type out "thanks" instead
of "10s" - it's only 3 more keys and is a lot easier to understand.

Hi,
I use a lot asynchronous XMLHTTP from JavaScript. Are the callbacks
that we register with XMLHTTP guaranteed to execute single-threaded?
For instance, consider the following code snippet.
var xmlhttp1 = new ActiveXObject( "Msxml2.XMLHTTP.4.0" );
xmlhttp1.onreadystatechange = callback;
xmlhttp1.open( "POST", "foo.aspx", true );

Can my program access the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software section of the
registry when being used by a user with restricted rights (not with admin

If so, how? I have a program that functions just fine when run by an
administrator but generates an exception when run by a restricted user. The
program accesses the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software section to set or get
application settings that are not user specific.

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
