OK here is one I can't find in the COmmand Ref or on the forums though someone MUST have posted it.

How can I get the machine ID??? I want to use that for my keygen program as well... Is there a way to peek this?

I'm not sure what you mean by Machine ID (Computer name perhaps?)

I looked under SystemProperty$ and Get/SetEnv but I think Machine ID is a little 'deeper'

I'm fairly certain .dll files contain this so if you can manipulate those, you should be able to resolve the Machine ID. (I cant ;-) )

There was a plugin called BlitzCPU which returned the CPU ID number. I was never sure how reliable the results returned were across hardware however so I didn't use it for my copy protection scheme.

I found a listing that uses blitzcpu.dll but no blitzcpu.dll shows in toolbox. Gonna google it!
