I have a license key to a new installation of Toad Data Point 6.3. However, when starting the app, I am prompted to go online to validate the license and cannot get into the app. The problem is that the Federal government agency I with whom I am working has all Internet access disabled from application servers, thus I get an error when trying to access. I cannot bypass this in the app be pressing ESC because it just closes it. Any way to get around this?.
