copy protection

Techniques used to prevent illegal copying of computer programs. Copy protection is not as common as it used to be because it also prevents legal copying (for back-up purposes). Alternative techniques to prevent illegal use include dongles, passwords and the need to uninstall a program before it can be installed on another machine.
