    I just found out recently that the PHP encoder tool provided by Byterun is no good as they include a malicious Javascript when encoding a code in PHP. I would like to know if there are any online PHP encoders out there which does what it is supposed to do and does not include any malicious code in its encryption?

    Thank you in advance.

    I have used IonCube recently, seems to work with php5 fine. Online encoder is cheap enough - like $0.05 per script.

    The online version of Ioncube does sound very reasonably priced.

    Doesn't Ioncube require that the server have certain extensions installed before scripts encrypted with Ioncube will work?

    If so, are these scripts by default installed on the vast majority of servers because the last thing I'd want is to release files encrypted with ioncube only to get users emailing me back that their host doesn't have the extensions or is unwilling to install them.

    Ioncube can be a problem - I wouldn't recommend it on smaller scripts, since not every site has it set up properly (and if they don't, troubleshooting a client's setup is time consuming).

    However, on larger (ie pricier) scripts it's far superior to Zend in my opinion - for example, I can create a key that locks it to a specific domain, making it only work there.
