There have been cracks in the past, I'm sure. But is this also the case with more recent versions ?

On a sidenote, they also provide in having a custom build of armadillo, which makes it even more difficult to crack.

OK, anything can be cracked, But IMO, armadillo might be the best way to protect your VFP applications.
