It supposedly is worth something, but I can't find anything on it on the net. Can someone tell me what this thing is and why it amy be worth money? It says right on it "Rainbow technologies" and "Sentinel SuperPro"
ID:IVZSPRO1188

On the opposite side it is printed
SRB08032
0629Y21250A43
LIC/Dongle

It also has a CE on it...

this is the only link that has a picture that is exactly like this thing...it is the one labeled "parallel"

Can someone please give me some insight or maybe send me links that tell me more about this?

Thanks a zillion and please no answers if you don't know anything about this....

The device is used as a way to lock software to a unique ID on a computer system as a way to prevent software piracy. Generally you will only find this on high end applications (in the thousand plus dollar range). A software application will use a license manager application, a license file, and the dongle to ensure the application isn't being copied between multiple systems. UNIX based systems (not Linux on an x86...but maybe on UNIX based hardware) has an internal system ID value but x86 based systems do not. These dongles provide the unique ID.

The dongle really isn't worth all that much without the software and the license file associated with that dongle. The information on the dongle would be used to generate a unique license file that is locked to that dongle. Somebody is probably very upset at losing the dongle but I don't know of an easy way for you to locate its owner.

if this is something your work gave you, you need it, otherwise it's fine. These are used for specific reasons, programs, logging in, stuff like that.
