I am part of an online community of bot scripters/makers and exploiters. However, leakage to the undeserved has been a problem. Therefor, I am looking for a way to implement HardwareID Locks on our programs, to block out those who have not earned the right to use whatever we don't want leaked.

Does anybody here have the time to explain to me how to implement these HardwareID Locks into programs?

By the way, most of the time the programs are AHK (AutoHotKey) scripts that have been converted into EXE (Executable) format.

Your scripts can be decompiled and stolen just so you know.

Implementing hardware ID blocks / locks what ever you want to call it wont stop people from using the app anyway. Nop the compares or hook the API that gets the ID and fake it and it will work for anyone.

And again, keep in mind that your script can be decompiled and stolen and/or changed to remove the checks if you add them.

@x0r: You can call API from most scripting languages like AutoHotKey, AutoIT, etc. since they are almost all made from the same source. For example:

For this, GetVolumeInformation would be used, but AutoHotKey already has a wrapped version to get each part of info via calling that API. You can get the serial using:
