Abstract

A system and method for preventing software piracy. In one embodiment, the system may comprise a device including a hardware component (10) and a software component (101, 300). The hardware component may have a first software component (101) stored within. The first software component may allow the hardware component to work, but with a reduced functionality. A second software component (300) may be obtained by a download, which may be accomplished through a dial-up connection or an Internet connection. A user may be required to register the hardware component and the second software component. With registration complete, the second software component may then be downloaded. The second software component, once downloaded, may then allow the hardware component to operate with its full, intended functionality.
