Hi all, I read a lot about securing/protecting/etc etc. What I mainly need is to store my reserved datas (login/credentials/addresses) used by the main .au3 in a .dat encrypted file. It has been told to me to use Resources() by Zedna. It seems a good idea, but I have some questions about: I can create the .dat as a .txt encrypted (To Encrypt Files Use [Crypt Files.au3], ) Now shall I use Resources() by Zedna or the Encrypt version by V3000? It seems that the V3000 version uses this format: _ResourceGetAsString ( $ResName, $ResType = $RT_RCDATA, $ResLang = 0, $DLL = -1, $Pass = '', $tALG_ID = $CALG_RC4 ) and the Zedna version: _ResourceGetAsString($ResName, $ResType = $RT_RCDATA, $ResLang = 0, $DLL = -1) Probably, given the pw used to encrypt I should use the V3000 version, isnt'it? But if this is the case the problem still remains: the command _resourcegetasstring() ask me the decrypt password. Now reversing the procedure, if someone goes .exe -> .au3 can see the pw and go back with a decrypt() of the .dat. Any idea? M.
