Here is a list of various standard types of CD-Cops program protection. All can be delivered
to protect either 16-bit or 32-bit programs. In all cases CD-Code must be entered first time the
protected program is run, unless a special "Codefree" production process is used. Here the CD-Code
is embedded on the CD-ROM, but only certain factories can handle this process. If you need something
even more special then look under Custom Solutions.
Key-CD checked every time program is being started.
Enhanced version:Object module linked in various places can perform additional key-CD checks upon request. Good for ultimate security but requires some implementation.
Machine Install version:Key-CD checked during installation and program is then machine installed. It will then run from that machine without key-CD. Can be installed several places from original CD!
Hard expiry version:Key-CD checked every time program is being loaded but refuses to run after a certain preselected date. This date is absolute ie. not to be confused with relative expiry (xx days after installation). Can be used for demo purposes.
Regular key-CD insertion:Key-CD checked only once in a while. Comes with a warning a number of days before it expires - original CD must then be inserted. Insertion interval can be chosen - typically 2-4 weeks.
