Just my 2p as someone who has had to deal with this sort of thing...
Time based evalutaion programs are too easy to trick, even the
best can be thrown by fiddling the clock. Even if you somehow
find a way to work around this, it's possible to crack it.
What is much harder to deal with is an evalutaion that refuses
to work unless it can contact a central server, and the server
records how long the evaluation has been running. But that
requires hairy amounts of resources, opens you up to accusations
of writing spyware and makes users feel like tey're being treated
like criminals (I present the court with Exhibit A: WindowsXP
product activation)
