It is easy enough to check the properties of the books to find out if they are PID encrypted. All you need to do is
  • Open up Mobipocket on your computer,
  • Then view the eBooks (it will be a list of all the mobipocket books on your computer).
  • Highlight a book,
  • Right click your mouse button,
  • Select properties from the popup menu
  • Then select the Summary tab.

If the book is encrypted, you'll see "PID encrypted" on this screen; if the book is not encrypted, you'll see "non encrypted" on the screen.
