Hi All, With the continuous move towards bytecode type of languages (with java and .NET being the prime examples), code obfuscation is a topic that we will be seeing more of in the future. Below is a link to a paper detailing how to crack String encryption in some of the more popular Java obfuscators. http://www.milw0rm.org/papers/117 As the conclusions state, a lot more needs to be done on the subject. Naturally, your comments are more than welcome. Thank you, Subere
