Protect your shareware apps with the AquaticPrime framework
Developing software for the Mac? We love you. Really. And most of us want to pay you for your efforts. So when you're slaving away on that great shareware app, and the bucks aren't rolling in because some tool posted up a serial online, what can you do? I know a lot of folks resort to third-party services like Kagi. But why not try the AquaticPrime framework? It's free, open-source, and uses RSA encryption. There are even Carbon, Cocoa, and PHP versions available. Now get back to coding, safe in the knowledge you may finally be able to afford your own computer for programming.

I prefer Ambrosia Software's method. The authentication goes to the server every time you enter in your license on a machine, which allows you to track malicious serial numbers. The serial numbers only work for 30 days, which means that it would only work for a very limited time.
Both can still be cracked, but Ambrosia's is a little bit more annoying to crack.
