Need some advice on deploying an app

Hi, I've just finished developing my haskell - windows app and am ready to ship it now. I'm using Inno Setup for the installation but need another tool that would wrap my app inside itself and check for valid keys or an expiration date on every start up. Can anyone recommend a good tool for that purpose? Günther

Hi Henk-Jan, en alweer hartelik bedankt. Since this is the 1st time I have actually developed a product I'm pretty new to this copy-protection-installer-what-not. Actually I didn't even know the right term for what kind of tool I was looking for, only figured that it would propably exist. Right now I found this http://www.softwareshield.com/Home/SoftwareShield_demonstrations.aspx If this lives up to its promise than I'll probably choose this. Thanks Günther Henk-Jan van Tuyl schrieb:

EXECryptor or TheMida might be good choices, there's also VMProtect for "protecting" certain parts of your code. Jeff
