After this, the module will be able to quietly validate registration and set the "Registered?" output to TRUE whenever the VST starts up by checking the Registry.
 


After registration, the Product Registration  will look like this:

If invalid information is entered, the dialog simply doesn't respond. No error messages (which could be helpful to someone trying to probe the system) are displayed.
