We use this as well and have been very happy with it especially the cost.

When you do the full disk encryption, it should have force you to make a CD
to decrypt the drive. This is a stand alone utility the will remove the
encryption and then allow you to use what ever tools you had used before to
get to the data e.g. put the drive in a second system.

I had and issue on my own laptop and the decryption worked though it took
all day to do it vs. the hour it took to encrypt it.
