ExeShield Professional 3.9

With ExeShield it's easy to turn your applications into
"try-before-you-buy" software with very little effort,
and maximum protection against piracy, backdating,
reverse-engineering or any kind of tampering.

ExeShield will protect virtually any Win32 executable, including:

• Visual Basic
• Delphi
• C++
• C++ Builder
• PowerBasic
• MASM
• Visual Studio

 

Some of the powerful features you can expect from ExeShield:

Anti-debugging & Anti-monitoring Protection

ExeShield uses several different techniques for protecting your application. Special code is added to defeat most Debuggers and Monitors including W32Dasm, SoftIce, TRW 2000, Turbo Debugger, Sourcer, Filemon, ExeSpy, ResSpy, RegMon and Memory Monitor which are tools most crackers are using today. Your protected executable is also modified so it can't run without ExeShield. Even if the protected executable was pulled out of the protection shell, it would not execute -- since ExeShield modifies parts of the program.

Sophisticated Encryption Technology

ExeShield uses the latest advances in software protection and encryption technology, to give your applications even more protection. Of course, for your security and ours, we won't divulge the encryption scheme to anyone.

Detects backdating or reinstallation

If a user tries to play with the date on their computer to gain additional time, or tries to uninstall and reinstall your software, these attempts will fail. ExeShield's defenses easily detect and prevent this kind of tampering.

Reliable Machine Locking Protection

Machine locking prevents your software from being illegally duplicated to other machines. The license can be run on one machine only.

Double Key protection

Your application is protected by two keys -- one key inside the application, and a second private key, exclusive to the owner. Your software can only be unlocked with both keys.

 

Invisible software-based protection requires no dongles

You do not need any extra hardware to protect your executable. ExeShield is 100% software driven.

Create evaluation copies tailored to your specific needs

ExeShield's flexibility allows you to to set your software's evaluation period to number of days or number of executions, or you can set a pre-determined date to terminate the trial.

You can also create different licenses. For example:

1. You want to lease your software every 30 days. Simply create a trial license and set it to 30 days. Every 30 days the user will need a new unlock code.

2. You want to set a 30 trial after which time the user has to purchase. All you do is create a trial license for 30 days, and then create a registered license.

3. You want to set a trial for 15 days, but you want to be able to extend the trial by 7 days if it expires, and you want the user to be able to register for the full version. Here's what ExeShield lets you do:

• Create a trial license for 15 days
• Create a trial license for 7 days
• Create a registered license.

The Key is in Your Hands: The key you send to your customer will active the license you choose.

Easy to use - No source code modification - no dependencies

We know that once you're ready to distribute your software, the last thing you want to be doing is more coding. So we made ExeShield extremely easy to use. You select your executable, set some parameters, and you're done. And there are no dependency files to distribute with your application. It doesn't get any easier than that! Your software is protected and ready for distribution in less than 5 minutes.

Multilingual Support

ExeShield allows you to customize your start-up screen in the language of your choice. You can add a second, third or even fourth language just by creating a new project for each language.

 

ExeShield is compatible with Windows 95, 98, Me, NT, 2000, and XP.
