I had a strange error occur when using mobidedrm v0.0.2 in linux using python 2.6.2 I get the following Error: invalid PID checksum. However in windows using python 2.6.2 the script works fine.

I'm at a loss as to why this is. I would prefer to NOT have to boot into windows, and would like to assist in correcting this. ( Feel free to pm me, or to point me to an active maintainer of the code. )

====UPDATE====
Just put the PID in single 'quote' marks (or apostrophes for some) and the script worked fine. I've modified the script copy to show that requirement in the error messages.
