I've used Softerm II since earlier versions (1.33) up to the present,
and they have never, to my knowledge, been copyprotected at all.  They
all copy with a standard FID or CopyII "copy disk" procedure.  

They do use a custom DOS, I assume for the file transfers that they
do, and thus it won't work with a high-speed DOS substitute.
