Clickonce and license question question

We have an application that we are using Clickonce to install on client
computers. Once the application is installed, the user runs the application
and is required to register the application with a license key that was
e-mailed to the user along with the ClickOnce link. The registration process
updates the SQL server at our ISP that the license key is now in use. We are
having problems with some of our corporate users who have strict firewalls.
They are unable to register the application and they get an SQL error. We
switched the registration so that it now uses a webservice instead of
directly linking to the SQL server but we are still having problems with some
corporate users / firewalls. I am wondering if there is a better way?
Basically, we want to limit each user to 1 installation per license key and
we want to document when the license key has been used. The application is
updated very often, so we also keep track of which version the users have
installed. The added problem is that everytime we have an update, the user
basically re-registers the application with the new version.
I would appreciate any suggestions that could make the process simpler for
both the users and our team.
Thanks,
John
