Freedom Scientific has always been very accommodating in adding activation keys when the need is triggered by a hardware change or retirement of a computer and replacement with a new one. I suspect that if you have to reauthorize, it will be a relatively painless process.

It sounds too good to be true, & was probably someone speculating more than anything else. Well, I'll just make sure that I've got activation keys available, & a dongle in my pocket! LOL Take care.

So far as a dongle goes, so long as it is in your system is authorized. Pull it out and it might take a couple of minutes before it reverts to demo mode. Let us know what happens if you wouldn't mind. -----Original Message----- From: Mike B.

I know the question sounds like a no brainer, but not having ever done this I want to make sure, so I have authorization keys available when necessary. Also, is it possible to reauthorize Jaws using a dongle? If so how is reauthorizing Jaws with a dongle done? All help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks much. Take care. Mike. Go Dodgers!
