I assume your program is in C# and you want to write the web part in PHP ? There's tons of ways to do this. Basically, you write code to store a date, and after that date, stop working and ask for an activation. Then your website stores those codes, probably via a web service, and sends back notification that a code is valid, which the program stores and then starts working again. None of it is complicated. but there's way too much code involved for you to get much out of a top level 'do this for me' request.

Thank you for giving the info.
I am planning to make a table having 1 field of code inserted by me and next field for the code returned by website. If both codes matches, it will continues installation. Can you give me some example of code as per your answer??

No. Surely you know that's a LOT of code ? It's a simple thing to do, and you need to do it using code that's NOT on the internet, if you want it to be secure.
