Hi Dave,
It's no major secret, I just didn't want to appear to
advertise.
It's Duxbury. It has a two way system whereby you can
activate over the Internet after installation. But then you
can also DE-activate over the internet should you wish to
make hardware changes or move the software to another
system. In that way, your activation count can go up as
well as down, and at more or less any time of the day or
night - 24/365.
It does of course suffer from the usual firewall issues, but
in 95% or more of cases, these are schools, colleges or
offices who tend to work Monday to Fridays, unlike private
users who can be working at any time.
George.

George,
You're keeping secrets -- what's this wonderful Braille
program that gets around the activation?
Of course if as a dealer you can't divulge, then consider
this message just to be a wink-wink nudge-nudge say no more.

The one way JAWS Activation process is a real pain,
but I don't see them changing it any time soon. With a
(unnamed) braille program I use, one can de-activate, add
memory, drives or whatever, and then re-activate.
However, to ascertain if it is possibly your
firewall causing the problem, or you have simply run out of
activations, go to
https://secure.freedomscientific.com/RNBO/Home/Installs_View
2.asp
(Long URL ending in "View2.asp" to watch out for
wrap)
You can enter your serial number, and it will tell
you how many activations you have left.
There is also a link on that same page for
requesting a reset of your activations if you find you don't
have any.
George.

Is your system on line? Maybe your firewall is
blocking freedom's internet program. You might want to try
disabling your av software's firewall.

Yup fell victem To the dredded jaws
activation thing. I added a gig of ram, and jaws comes up
wanting to be re activated. So I say wat the heck, sure go
ahead, and it says that there's a prob with my net work or
something, and my computer fellow says that's not the
trouble, that I'll need to get with freedom scientific
monday and get a new activation key. So I figure well jee
I'll run jaws in demo mode, but then caketalking tells me I
can't work with those scripts in sonar until I pay for them.
I guess I'll just get the whole thing handled on Monday
unless someone has any thoughts on what else I might do.
