title: How to make my program not run on other computers?
body: <p>I have an assignment, and it has (amongst others) two demands:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>make an installer</li>
  <li>make it so that if it is installed on one computer, anyone trying to run the same files on another computer will fail.</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>I'm using VS9 (2008) express, I think I can do the installer part, but I'm not sure how to do the "security" part. I don't need any hard to crack safety, just a dumb condition that will stop most users from copying the files to another computer. (Like checking the MAC address).</p>
  
  <p>Any ideas?</p>
  
  <p><strong>EDIT:</strong><br>
  I would like to check the MAC address but I want the program finalized during installation. Meaning that after I install I can't move the program to another machine. It also does not have to be a very smart or difficult condition, just bare minimum. I just don't know how to do it in the installation.</p>
  
  <p><strong>EDIT:</strong><br>
  It's sad I don't have the complete VS then I would be able to do it easily.</p>
