QuestionPrevent exe from being copied and run on another pc Pin

Hi Guys,

I have written an application using vs2005 that connects to sql2005.
i have installed it on several user computers.

how can i prevent a user from copying the exe/program from their pc and using it on another site/company.

i have thought about hardcoding the m/board serial number into the app(but this is not a good option)
i also thought about creating a license file but not sure on how to cos the user can copy the exe and lic file as well.

any ideas?

thanks in advance...
Anoop
