    If you truly encrypt, you'd have to have something on the client to decrypt.
    There are a lot of people who *claim* to encrypt when really all they are
    doing is encoding. The two are most certainly not the same.

    Once again, I point you to my site where I demonstrate this.

> Hey Steve, it can be done.  Encryption will make it much harder for anyone
to understand your source code.  There are a bunch of sites on the internet
that offere this service free.  I also will be launch a "PowerTools" site to
allow this to be done.  It is currently the only way I can think of actually
hiding the source.  And if you are so worried, place some copyright tags
down at the bottom and if they "borrow" any material, sue them. ;-)
