I used to sell windows shareware, a series of apps that composed music and loops etc. I got really sick of finding cracked versions of my apps online, usually a day or two after I'd released something. So I wrote and released an app called "Magic Text Box" which consisted of just a single form with one text box on it. Less than a day later, a cracked version of it showed up.
