i'm trying to modify a script i purchased a license for use (obviously the license doesn't cover modifying the actual code, but i need to, for legit reasons because they've encrypted nearly all their php. it's really annoying - i open a php file and i see random strings of letters and numbers where functions and all should be.

is there any way to decrypt this code without a key?

it doesn't sound very legit

i know but they've stopped developing it now and they're not going to fix this simple little file upload bug that i know i can fix myself if i can only look at the code

it depends how they encoded it. maybe you could post some of the code.

it can't be too strong an encoding scheme since it has to be decoded on the fly, so it's probably not a hash and is something more along the lines of a caesar cipher.

there has to be some php code in there that decodes everything, just change the code of that to echo out everything it decodes

they most likely fed it through zend optimizer

it's encoded using ionCube - i've found zendecode.com to try and do it for free

i'll see where that leads.

yea if its encoded with ioncube or zend then it isn't decoded in the php file itself.
