MS gave up on all the normal protection methods, because anything that resides solely on the user's computer can be broken. Authenticate on your own server (your program has to be able to 'phone home') and it can't be broken unless someone breaks into your server. Add hardware fingerprinting (that's the way Windows authenticates - hardware fingerprinting and on MS's server) and the user can't give a friend his authentication code to use.
