It apparently does some kind of snap shot of your system. Try to run it on another machine after you've installed it, and it'll crash. It'll stick wierd control characters in your GLOBALS timeline...insert ACTORS that aren't there. And if you get as far as a RENDER, it LOCKS after the initialization phase. The protection has been verified by IMPULSE! Sean BTW> I'm not a pirate...I was trying to demonstrate the local dealer's copy at a TV station. After an hour's work, I decided to call Impulse, and their tech support (such as it is) told me about the protection. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> .SIG v2.5 <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< UUCP: ...!crash!pnet01!pro-party!seanc RealWorld: Sean Cunningham ARPA: !crash!pnet01!pro-party!seanc@nosc.mil Voice: (512) 992-2810 INET: seanc@pro-party.cts.com ____________________________________ // | * All opinions expressed herein | HELP KEEP THE COMPETITION UNDER \X/ | Copyright 1991 VISION GRAPHICS | >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>><<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
