I don't know about getting past the copy protection, but there is at
least one fairly vast archive of Apple II software available online. I
never remember the exact address, but it is something with asimov.net
(the A2 newsgroups usually make mention of it from time to time)
Your friend can always check there to see if the software he needs to
transfer has already been made into a disk image that he may be able to
use with the emulator.
