Guardian Angel Protection System provides developers with a license file system to protect their software. With the Guardian Angel Protection System you can implement a license file into your program that determines if the program is a shareware, demo or registered version of your application. To implement the system you simply create a license file for your application by selecting the type of license file you wish to create. You then give it a name and a password, add the GAPS ActiveX control to your application, set a few properties and your done. The license file is less then 1k in size making it quick to download to your end users. The license file is also encrypted for security and has other tamper-proof features built-in. The download features the "License File Creator", the "License File Checker&quot\; and the "GAPSX ActiveX Control". The "License File Creator&quot\; lets you create five different licenses, which include a shareware, demo, temporary, variable, and permanent license. The "License File Checker&quot\; is a utility that lets you verify the license file type of a previously created license file. The "GAPSX ActiveX Control&quot\; lets you connect your license file to your application.
