License file protection?

Hi

We have purchased a copy of the Java/Email OEM license for one of our developers. He’s now integrating the license file with our software and we have a question.

Since the *.lic file needs to be placed along with the software we’re distributing – how do we ensure that this license file is not taken by a 3rd party and misused? Is there a way to obfuscate the *.lic file or integrate/compile it into one of our JAR files so it is not available in loose form for someone to copy over?

Any recommended methods for this?

Thanks!
