It's extremely easy.

Download something called mobidedrm##.py (different version numbers, latest if 05 I believe... 04 works great).

Put all the books in the same folder as the .py file.

Google, download, and install Python.

Download Mobipocket Reader so that you can get a PID, and enter that into Fictionwise. You don't need the Kindle's PID, and the Mobipocket Reader's PID is easier to obtain.

Once you do this once, the following is all that needs to be done on a regular basis:

Start->Run CMD

for %a in (*.mobi) do mobidedrm##.py %a "%~na.prc" PID

If you're converting PRC, switch .mobi and .prc. I name them with a different extension so that they can go in the same folder with the same name and then I just delete the original files.

In the future, download the books into a directory with the Python script on it, run that line, done!
