I think that all solutions will suffer from the same general types of  
concerns.  Unfortunately, I think you will need to accept the fact  
that there is no perfect client side licensing solutions.  All you  
can do is ensure that its sufficiently difficult to break the  
licensing scheme so that the cost of a license is a reasonable  
alternative.  And you may still have some loss with people cracking  
the licensing scheme...

I'd love to be proven wrong on this one, so if someone has some  
information to share please do so!
