What do you do if CL goes bust and discontinues its online operations. Or what do you do if a new version of poser comes along do they continue this validation scheme infinitely for poser 5 ? Why not have the option between this scheme and a required cd check each time you start the program. Then you are not nessecarly dependent on the internet. Just think of miscrosoft. They discontinue support for earlier versions of windows after a couple of years. This could meen they do not bother to make sure people can reactivate windows xp after a couple of years. Copy protection is absolutely a software companys right to implement. They should however plan for different future senarios. And I for one don't think it's fair to demand that people should update their software and hardware or else not be able to use a preveous version they bought fair and square. I know people have been saying this for years but the computer power of the high end computers has or will soon have a long head start compared to software demands. I don't think you need a 5 GHz computer with 10 GB ram to have fun using poser 5. And maybee some people will want to dabble a little into an obsession that they have laid to rest some years ago once in a while.

Thanks ! I did in fact do a search and read ( , which returned many ansews and I only had the pasience to look at around 15 of them) and at least 4 tutorials but maybe this wil work :-)
