    <p>Make it hard for them to evaluate your scheme, and change your scheme regularly. A textbook example is to perform the check at odd intervals which will be time consuming for them to locate the sources of your checks and all cross references during the progress of the license evaluation. Combine that with multiple checks and you should be set for most releases, just add a good dose of creativity when creating your scheme. Also, it's a bit fun to play their game; to get them to release a crack that fails 1 month after the crack is posted... ok, that may just backfire on you, but if you are trying hard to fight them in the first place...</p> <p>It's an interesting community; if you're new to this, studying the communities will also be beneficial. As previously mentioned, cracks happen for challenge, some product versions will simplify their copy protection scheme for 'free advertising'. So... you can't really fight cracking too hard because if somebody is determined, it will just waste your time and frustrate you. Observing the culture can be interesting. You're probably in the best position if you acknowledge that it being cracked equates to 'popular software', and therefore, you should be happy. You should generally not lose much sleep over this (though there are of course exceptions to this). Furthermore, as this question is listed in the Mac category: I am not going to dig up stats, but your software is less likely to receive attention from crackers if you're targeting OS X.</p> <p>If you're a beginning programmer, clever use of that information (and acceptance) may be all you need to know to effectively fight crackers.</p>
