A Discussion of two Copy Protection Schemes offered on VBC. Included are a patch file for the latest LockX project and one for the 'Copy Protection Scheme - A Challenge' project. Both files are a compile of the example projects provided. I then created a patch file which defeats the protection. The Patch File applier will only patch the provided files so if you want to patch a different file you need to create your own patch file. Which is as in the real world. If the Patch File applier is run a second time then the patched application will revert to the original.
