personally i'd have hit the protection routine to return true for the check, that way if its called indirectly later, its better
actally, it looks like there may be an ini setting 'test_copy_protect'
so check the ini file, see if thats there, its probabaly somethign like 'test_copy_protect = 1' or similar, so make it 0 (if it says TRUE then make it FALSE)
and see what happens
