I have written 100 c++ programs and I want to save them all including a turbo c++ software in a cd. Can you help me in making this cd copy protected which my friends could use but could not make copy of my cd or save the contents of my cd onto their computers.
So what you are saying is that you want you CD to be read-only?
Yes, exactly. I want the cd to be read only.. i.e others can view the contents but cannot retrieve them...
All they would need to do is copy the files to their hard drives.
I am not able to understand wt you guys are suggesting... I thought previously that this website helps to solve any kind of problems.. but now I know that like the other sites this one is also only for chatting and dating and no help should be expected from the help desk... can anyone prooove me wrong?
You can prove yourself wrong, by looking at the many questions where people have asked questions and gotten helpful answers. Also, there is no dating going on here, but there is some chatting.Quote:

But that doesn't prevent copying the CD itself.
The difficulty into copy protecting software is one of the prime reasons shareware came into being.
Thanks scotgem for the giudance... I now know that I am not going to bring out any such cd... well I thought previously that as the technology has advanced so much there must be some way of doing it... sorry for bothering you guys... thanx anyway...
