Yes, I did. Maybe you should do the same?

That means you cannot pass the cd check for Shredder 7.04 within the Shredder
classic GUI? Uh... The Shredder classic original CD check is one of the hardest
I have ever seen. A copy of my original CD e.g. has not been accepted on all my
PCs, seems to depend on the CD/DVD-drive you have. And if even your original CD
makes trouble, the CD itself might have some scratches or the like, so that it
cannot be accepted as original by the copy protection check. I suggest that you
contact your dealer and ask for replacement.
