    You can download the Shareware Starter Kit from this page. Look for:

    [Image] Shareware Starter Kit

    A sample application that implements the common features in shareware applications including integrated e-commerce using PayPal, secure product activation, product registration, error reporting, and more using Web services.

    From the kit's description:

    Product Activation

    Many shareware applications enable to try-before-you-buy, and this feature enables developers to control how you want to configure your application trial period. For example, you can explicitly state that your application can only be used for 30 days before activating the product.   While it’s not a bullet proof mechanism, the built-in version provides a sample of how you can configure product activation.

    Hope this helps,
