Hey,
As you guys know my new version of eYoutubeMacros is as good as finished. however there's a problem, To sell it I need to encrypt it so it won't get stolen by warez sites etc. easily. I've looked at various things so far.
VBScripts
First one is vbe, this encodes the vbscript but it's easily decodable by anyone with a little scripting knowledge, so this one ain't going to be it.
Second one is VBS2EXE, there are tools that will create an executable from a VBScript file, the problem is most of these will trigger virusscanners, now if this isn't a problem for you guys I can release a version that uses this.
Third option is recoding the entire application in another programming language, this makes it possible to have a better GUI, but it's very time intensive.
IIM Files.
Now we have the other files, the iMacros files, these are ofcourse easily readable so I need to incorporate them into the code not hard, done.
Licensing
Another issue is licensing, I probably need to create a license that is tied to both the IP address and some other stuff but encrypted so it's hard to decode, and use multiple checks for various parts of the program, this is kind of hard to do with vbscript.
So let me know your opinions, tips, and maybe even previous experiences.
Thanks, Ruler0fAll
