"Maybe one more bug or maybe one new feture could be made during that time?"

You could argue "one more feature" "one more bug fix" for infinity. You'd never see a release again by that logic. The validation method is a necessary tool to help combat the rampant piracy mIRC receives in order for Khaled to continue to develop the program.

"and as you said, u was surprised it took so long time, so thats why i don't think it's well spent time to make this changes in mirc"

I also said I doubt the validation thing is a way of truly preventing illegal hacks - that's damn near impossible. I said it helps nudge otherwise well-meaning non-cheapskates into doing the right thing and registering.

"i think people would keep on paying him even if he removed that thing completley"

Evidently, you're wrong. I would imagine if enough people were paying then this effort wouldn't have been made in the first place.
