The only standalone drivers I can find for Macs and Windows are for outdated operating systems. I'm advertising that potential owners must have their own recording program to use with it, but I'm finding that they might need that LE authorization code to get the latest drivers for it if they're running Snow Leopard or whatever the latest Windows operating system is.

I somewhat recently stopped using the MBox, and in an attempt to make more room on my computer, I deleted Pro Tools LE. The CoreAudio driver always worked just fine on my Mac. I installed Pro Tools LE (I don't even know what version it was at this point, the discs are long gone) but right away started using Ableton Live.
