Well, the only program that decopyprotects software that I know of is
HD Util.  I forget who publishes it, but you should be able to find it
in any mail order ad.  They have people at this company who, on a
program by program basis, figure out how to hack the executable code
to defeat the copy protection.  You then use there product to apply
the "patch" to your copy of the program.  I don't know if they have
patches for Reader Rabbit or Kids time, but you might find out who
publishes it and then call and ask them.
