    Basically you need to look through the program and find out where it queries the dongle, then replace that with code that lets the program continue even when the dongle isn't there.

    Often programs implement trivially simple dongle checking, e.g.
    Code:
    int isDonglePresent()
    {
      if ( /* some fancy stuff */ )
        return 1;
      else
        return 0;
    }
    
    (one program I worked on some years ago did precisely this) and so in this case you could change the executable so that this function returns 1 whether the dongle is present or not.

    Sure, you'll need to provide me with a dongle, which means a licence, plus my time which works out at UKP50 per hour (plus any taxes you have to pay, such as VAT), minimum fee 20 hours (including time for learning the product). I'll do what I can in whatever time you pay me for and give you the results.
