Thanks Anthony. When I was crawling through CCO today, I didn't see the Safenet client available for download anywhere. I checked out the Safenet website and can't see anywhere to download a trial. I'll call their sales dept tomorrow and see if they can hook me up. Unfortunately, there's no way I'm going to spend $150 on a client without a test drive first. Anyway, thanks for the tip. I'm definitely going to follow up.
