Default NEED HELP PROGRAMMING EXCEL TO AUTHENTICATE EXCEL USER ID AND LICENSE NUMBER WHEN TEMPLATES ARE USED

I need help adding COPY PROTECTING my Excel XP templates. I have been
unable to find anyting that prevents people form making copies of
CD's. I was also wondering if it is possible to DISABLE users from
using a template unless they can confirm their user identification
code over the internet. This is how I invision this working.

1) User received a USER ID and LICENSE NUMBER when product license is
originally issued

2) User installs the Excel product on his hard drive.

3) Must have Internet access and a regular email account (NOT, hotmail
or Yahoo)

4) When user boots up Excel template a dialog box opens asking for his
USER ID and LICENSE NUMBER. User must be logged into the Internet and
Email must be running. When user enters ID and LICENSE NUMBER an
authentication is sent to a my server. My server authenticates that
this is an authentic USER ID and LICENSE NUMBER and sends user an
email confirming authentication and allowing user to use the Excel
template.

Can anyone write someting like this?
