Default A unique ID for protection?

If it makes you feel any better, Frank, Bob's nasty code doesn't work

We disable WSH at ever reboot.

Getting it to die is another matter though.

Here is one way, get the C drive volume number

Function DiskVolumeId() As String
Dim FSO As Object

Set FSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
DiskVolumeId = Format(CDbl(FSO.Drives("C:").SerialNumber))
End Function
