Maybe using the InstallOptions "password" object.
But I dont' think that's enough, doesn't?

Each program has its own unique algorithm for generating and checking serial numbers and/or software keys. Usually, a list of serial numbers is not a good idea because it won't be hard to extract it from the program and just use one, and the list could also be huge taking up lots of space. The best idea is to create a plug-in DLL that will check the serial, according to the software requirments and get the key/serial with an InstallOptions custom page as Dark Boy said. With the new leave function for custom pages in the latest CVS version it will be very easy to check.
