    Title: help me to decrypt a php file
    http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=2133779

    Some kind of bad post slipped through, be careful.

    EDIT: Seems to be OK now, but at the time, it wanted to download showthread.php on both IE and FF

    The PHP code highlighting system was actually crashing when trying to highlight the code in that post. Specifically, the PCRE library that PHP uses for regular expressions had some bugs in it that was more or less causing PHP itself to crap out trying to parse the code.

    Long story short is I knew that PHP 5.3.6 internally updated the PCRE lib it uses to 8.11, so as the first thing to try to fix it was to simply upgrade the servers from PHP 5.3.5 to 5.3.6. Thankfully, it seems the new PCRE lib in PHP 5.3.6 doesn't crap out when trying to regex the code to highlight the syntax.
