I know You put a lot of work in that fantastic peace of software of yours ....
Maybe you should think aboout a better protection mechanism for the future releases.

Jürgen,
I'm aware that Global Mapper is being pirated just like any other software product. There is always a trade-off between fighting the pirates and keeping things simple and flexible for the legitimate users. I tend to err on the side of keeping things simple for the honest users, which I suspect are the vast majority, even if it makes things a bit easier for pirates.
Thanks,
Mike
