hi
I want to create a license file for my program
I have created a function that extract unique hex number of each network

When activation wizard starts, this unique number has been sent to a server
as a request code. Now i need a hash function that mix this number with a
user name and return a new code as an activation code to user.
So please suggest a hash function
