Either way, what have you tried? Asking people to download a zip file is pretty rude, I suggest you provide an SSCCE instead.

well i have deleted the download link

its an assignment and i need help on it simple . i have the java file on my pc before it was timed and i also have it after it was timed

i just want to know how it was timed

To reset the counter, you could delete/erase/remove it.

what i mean is that i have a java application on my pc. i dont know how it was timed , it always refuse to launch , but each time i call the guy that program it , he will reset it and then give me another download link for thesame java file . so he ask to get the trick

So let me get this straight -- are you a current Java programmer? Are you studying programming? Or is your primary concern with just figuring out how to hack someone else's program that has a time limited use on it?
