I'm just trying to understand what you are actually trying to accomplish here. But nothing you've said so far justifies protecting the disk.
As to DRM technology, you have to license it and its expensive. | Thank u very much. I got it. Actualy I downloads softwares and collect it. It is my picuiliar hobby. How ever I dont want to use any expensive technology. Is there any third party software which will help to protect the cd?  |

Pay to call ScottGem for advice ($.75/min) | You aren't answering my questions. If this is downloaded software, then what right do you have to copy protect it. If its shareware or freeware then it should be freely distributable so there is no reason to protect the disk. If its commercial software, then you don't have a right to give that disk to anyone else so the need to protect it disappears.
Everything I'm hearing tells me there is no reason to protect the disk, so why do you want to? | |

Thats why I tried to protect. Yeah anybody take from me the free softwares but I will give them. In my locality they take those softwares in my absense. So I want to know this.  | |

If you don't want people to copy from your CD, then keep it under lock and key. But trying to put copy protection on a disk of shareware apps that you collect is like trying to padlock a public park. | |
