I hope this might help those having issues here... I figured that I would just post what I did yesterday, step by step in the hope that it'll clear up some issues people are having...

Others have said that you might need to install the Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable Package, this wasn't the case for me, as I already had it. If you're not sure do it anyway. http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en

Install Python 2.6, I use ActivePython on windows:http://downloads.activestate.com/Act...-win32-x86.msi

Then install PyCrypto. I used the latest version, the exe style installer.

Install Adobe Digital Editions.

Once this is installed you'll be prompted about "activating" it. This must be done to create your own personal key that the DRM remover uses. You can use either of the activation options, I selected the "this machine only" one rather than create an account.

Once all of this is done you should be ready to go!

Edit: Detailed info on how to use the DRM tool removed. It's our forum policy. Thanks for your understanding.

That should be it! The created ePub file will be all squeaky clean, ready for use in any way you see fit

I hope this helps anyone who has been having difficulties, it's what I did and it worked first time...

My instructions were too detailed with regards the the running of the actual scripts :S I hope the info that remains is still of use to people. My only intention was to help those having difficulties!
