No, I think protecting software in any way is a waste if resources, especially software you plan to sell to someone. Prohibiting the buyer from making changes to software they purchased has zero gains for anyone involved. If I did want to protect some software I wrote, and I was willing to pay money to do so, I would want to use something much more capable than the Zend Encoder. In principle I'd at least want something that costs less than it's equivalent decoder. -- Greg Donald http://destiney.com/ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
