How does the software connect to the activation server?

 

The activation server is contacted on port 80 using the URL www.mykron.com.  This is not a URL that will display a meaningful web page.  We use this simple connection to get through firewall and anti-virus software.  The data sent is an encrypted text string.  If the software cannot contact the server, it’s usually because your firewall or anti-virus software does not allow our EC6.EXE or ENERCALC_NetworkLicenseManager.exe programs access to the Internet.  In rare cases a user will have a proxy server that cannot be automatically located.
