I would check out Armadillo which is at http://www.siliconrealms.c om/armadil lo.shtml I downloaded a demo of their program a while back for a calculator application, but later decided to make it web based and free.
The program takes your program and puts a "shell" around it. You can have it hardware locked and/or have them contact you and give you a specific code that you would enter and then you would give them the access code. There are many varients such as 30 day license, or 10 opens, or limit run time to however length of time you want.
As for your other files I would check out the site above and see if it will protect them too. If you contact them I'm sure they have a solution since their software did more then anything else I found, and that was over a year ago.
