Protected .nfo file

hey there, i recently bought a cd of ebay containing the works of an
auther. This file is an .nfo file and is about 107 mb. Every time i
try to copy, or print a few pages from this document, i get a mesege
saying this: "Insufficeint Security to perform this operation". I
have
a really hard time reading things of my computer screen, and usually
prefer to print of documents. So i have tried everything within my
knowledge and ability to do so. I have tried to convert it to
different formats, but the characters become unreadble. I have
attempted to use another program to open and try to print the pages,
but there does not seem to be any such program that can open such a
large file. The program im using is called Folio Views. Any help
would
be much appreciated.

Don't you mean "cracking"?

Security is related to breaking it, so he actually is in the right
group. However, the problem is totally uninteresting. There is a file,
which the author doesn't want anybody to copy, print or alter, and he
achieves this using an own (probably insecure) format, for which he
writes a special program.

The security of hardware-implemented DRM isn't better either. Sooner or
later both are broken.
