Q: 

Can PEiD deal with hard coded software limitations?

As we know PEiD can detect most common packers, cryptors and compilers for PE files, but can it detect the hard coded stuff(not by 3rd party packers,etc),like software usage date limitation?

A: 

Well, protection "is a feature, not a bug". PEiD has some chance to start barking in heuristic mode if too much "strange code" is detected; however, IDA Pro has even more.
