Starting with Source Insight 4.0, the software performs a cryptographic handshake with the licensing server. Even if you find a valid key (e.g., a disgruntled employee leaked their real purchased key), the moment you type it in, the software checks if that key is already activated elsewhere. If it detects two concurrent activations from different IP addresses (or too many fresh installs), it and locks the software. source insight license key
