You need software security to keep your information safe. In most cases, for home users, security prevents malicious viruses. Viruses can do a range of things such as deleting files, stealing information and preventing your OS from operating correctly.
You need security in your own software to prevent it from being stolen. More people stealing your software equals less people buying your software equals less money. Most software will be cracked eventually though so you need to stay on top of it.

A spammer's worst nightmare
Our software uses a concurrent user licensing method. We need security methods to ensure that users are not using more licenses than they have paid for.

If your software gets cracked, it can be destroyed so you can't use it again. Worse, personal information can be stolen which can be utilized for identity theft.

Writes binary right handed and hex left handed
Software security like encryption is very important for shareware, and people will not be able to edit your programs and make them their own (while you have done the hard work)

Writes binary right handed and hex left handed
Well, I encrypt and obfuscate like a maniac, but only when I think it's necessary, e.g. for security/password applications. For my "Super 2D Snake" Games (fictional example) I just run it through some simple obfuscator to show hackers that they are not welcome. If they REALLY want to crack/hack it, they will anyway. How can I stop them...
