Online License Validation

 

Transferable license requires online validation at least once every month. If the IceViewer is registered with a transferable license then the IceViewer will attempt to connect to the Black Ice License server via the internet to validate the license. For the license validation the IceViewer will require an active internet connection on the computer.

 

If your computer is not connected to the internet or a firewall is blocking your computer’s connection for more than a week and license validation fails, the IceViewer will display a warring notification message of how many days are left before you must validate the license or the software will become disabled.

 

 

Click on the OK button to continue using the IceViewer. The IceViewer remains fully functional and can be used for up to 30 days without online validation.

 

If the time period for the online validation has expired and the IceViewer was unable to validate the license due to the lack of active internet connection the IceViewer offers the following options:

 

 

·         One can attempt online validation by clicking on the Retry validation button. Before retrying the online validation, please make sure that your computer has an active internet connection.

 

·         Register with different serial allows the Administrator to register the IceViewer without an active internet connection using manual registration. Please note: that after the manual registration, the license will not be transferable anymore! This option is recommended in highly restricted environments without internet connection.

 

·         Continue in Free mode allows users to run the Free IceViewer with limited functionality.
