GianCarlo,

One of the better copyprotection is Shredder's. That did not stop crackers.

That the programs you listed
were UCI and were cracked doesn't mean that because
Zappa will not be UCI then will not be cracked.
It will be difficult to stop crackers as Zappa is the "WorldChampion"

Or are you going to bet money on that Zappa won't be cracked?

All existing software which is interesting to crackers is cracked.
And will continue until piracy stops.

As for me, I like to contribute to programmers efforts.

Rafael
