The "protection device" is a USB dongle (like a USB memory stick) that must be attached to one of your computer's USB ports for the program to load. Logic uses a similar device. It would have been in the box when you bought the program.

For the record, I prefer Logic and a MOTU 828 as my audio interface, with an Emagic MT4 for midi. Check out the Getting Started section here and you'll read A LOT about what else is out there.

Happy hunting.
