There is a wealth of information on how to remove DRM and convert ebooks at Dark Reverser’s New Blog (do google search). It takes patience, but it does work if you follow the instructions. There are also many helpful people who will “talk” you through it. I’m not a programmer, but after a few missteps, I have it working great. You also want to download an ebook conversion program called Calibre, which will convert your unlocked books from any format to any format for any device you may have. It’s free, but the developer accepts donations via Paypal and it’s well worth it.

I just bought an e-book, which was meant to be for my amazon kindle, but then i realized i only can read it on my computer (which i hate:((().
Unfortunately I couldn’t manage to get the DRM out of it.I installed python and stuff, but then i get an error when trying to export the document. Any ideas?

If your wonderful soul would like to give me the same directions as the above, I would be greatly appreciated. I have done some research on the web, but I find I am still sratching my head. I am not programming literate AT ALL.

I have Vista on my laptop. Thank you

Same boat as the others here.

I have a Nook with tons of PDB’s and I want to strip the DRM’s. Some I’ve gotten from B&N, Fictionwise, and Diesel and other stores. I’ve got Python installed along with Pycrypto, but have no clue how to use it.

Can anyone point me to the babystep guide for stripping DRM’s please? It’s all very confusing and not much info on the net about how to do it due to legalities. I need some explicit instructions. Not just ‘Run the Script’ stuff.

Thank you.

Sorry but I am a computer dummy. I have followed the instructions (I think) and I am completely lost.
When I download Phyton, what I get is Phyton (Comand Line). I have the scripts and I don’t know what to do with it.
Can someone with instructions for playschool level? I just want to be able to read the book I have bought from mobipoquet in a PRC fail with DRM in my Sony touch reader.
Thanks
