i was trying out the zmud 7.21 trial, but after about two days of usage, a message popped up saying something like i tried to change my system clock to fool zmud's trial stuff? i know this isn't true... (by the way, i'd installed it about two days after a complete format of a brand-new hard drive in my comp). it said i should try to restart my computer to try to fix it, but that didn't work.
any suggestions? :O

I'm wondering if this can be caused by the system time updating itself with a time server. It happens with other applications too. http://www.astonshell.com/aston/faq.htm#9

weird :(

can i, like, reset my zmud thinger somehow? i mean the time that it was on. 'cause i tried uninstalling/reinstalling version 7.21, but i guess it uses it's eliscense or whatever to track the time. i saw an uninstall eliscense thing on the site earlier. could that work to finish my trial?

well, you could always reformat the hard drive

Send an email to support@zuggsoft.com and tell us that you got the clock error during the trial and we can help you reset it. No need to reformat your hard drive. zMUD 7.21 doesn't use eLicense. But the copy protection used in 7.21 is sensitive to date changes during the trial period.

Oh, okay, well thanks. but anyways, i'd been using the old free version of zmud up until this morning, but i wanted to see if uninstalling the eliscence would work... so i uninstalled the old zmud and re-installed the new one and the trial's back up at 15. so i'm good for another 15 days.
thanks anyways
