I need to protect some custom written software but am a little confused.  I've
looked into the adapters that plug into the printer port and even sent away for
a demo kit from one company.  After reading the docs, it seems that it shouldn't
be too hard to create a compatible key.

Has anyone successfully bypassed these keys or are they as safe as the manuf.
say they are.
