ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a method and system for verifying software product licenses using hardware and product identifications. Specifically, the present invention provides a method and system for verifying multiple products using a verification file that is obtained/maintained separately from the product. The products are verified based upon specific end-users' computer systems, as opposed to the end-users themselves.
