© HYPrLock, GoldPanner Software Made with Xara PDF/eBook/CD Distribution and Access Security Q) How does HYPrLock protect against unauthorized access? A) Every time a PDF/eBook is opened, HYPrLock checks to make sure no one has tampered with the security system and that the user is authorized. If HYPrLock detects a problem - it automatically locks the PDF/eBook and unregisters itself. Q) Does the HYPrLock system work with Mac, iPhone, Kindle or other eRead hardware? A) NO! HYPrLock is a “PC” application and requires a Windows operating system to function. Fortunately, desktop, laptop and netbook PCs account for about 95% of the computer market. That’s where authors should concentrate effort. Mac computers and products like the iPhone, eReader and Knidle (etc.) do not use the Windows operating system. Therefore HYPrLock protected content can not be used. However Mac’s running virtual “Windows” should be able to use HYPrLock. There is a lot of hype about eBook Readers and tablet computers but these systems only cater to a small percentage of the overall PDF/eBook market. While an iPhone can read PDF and text files, reading a publication of any volume is very difficult. Publishing to dedicated eBook Readers seems attractive, but these systems are incompatible and difficult to target. Also their poor security systems are not judged effective for copyright protection. Q) Does HYPrLock only work with PayPal and ClickBank? A) If a payment system can redirect the buyer to a website URL after a purchase, it should work with HYPrLock’s Automatic Password System.  Q) What about screen captures? A) Protecting against dedicated screen capture programs or digital cameras is impossible.  Q) Does HYPrLock work with Windows 7? A) HYPrLock is “Windows 7 friendly” and it can be installed under a standard “user” account. Administrator permissions are not required. Q) Does HYPrLock PDF have translations? A) The HYPrLock program itself is only supplied in English but the PDF eBook Pro and PDF Subscription versions come with translations covering key information seen by customers (such as Ordering and Download instructions). Translations include English, French, Spanish, Portuguese, German & Turkish. Q) Can PDF files be opened outside of HYPrLock? A) NO! HYPrLock protected PDF files use passwords created "on the fly" by program code. These "hypr" PDF files cannot be unlocked without the HYPrLock program (after a user is authorized). Q) Is HYPrLock PDF is easy to use? A) The HYPrLock PDF program automatically produces an installer/uninstaller package complete with a desktop icon (usually in less than a minute). End users only need to enter their email address to instantly get an activation password. HYPrLock set-up requires adding a folder and a few files to the author’s website. * Windows file system skills are required.
