May 11, 2006, Vancouver, BC – Protexis, provider of e-commerce and digital rights management (DRM) hosted services for software publishers, today announced that it has added support for the new Intel-based Mac. With more than five years of experience in preventing software piracy for software publishers world-wide, Protexis product activation and other services are now available for applications developed for both Intel-based and PowerPC-based Macs, as well as Windows PCs.
