Even if this does not apply to all countries in the world, you should be
aware of the following. When a developer decide to encrypt a script, thereby
hiding the code from the general community, this is to be defined and
understood as a Copyrighting of the material. According to such a
definition, an encrypter - that the developer does not agree on - will be
understood as an infringement to Copyright rules. As such, both the person
behind the decryptor, and anyone who decides to decode encrypted material,
might end up doing things that are illegal locally.
If an encryptor is counted as good behavior in the app developing community,
I am afraid there is no longer any reason for a developer, to undergo all
the extra steps of encrypting their material. And, there will no longer
exist a good way for them to immediately protect their material.
Furthermore, even if the developers in the future decide to release their
copyrighted work in another format, the existing encrypted code is available
on the Script SC, and as such, will for always be broken as a Copyright.
This will call for the developers to have to rewrite their code, or in any
other way, make further steps to continue to have his product special. Even
GW themselves, have decided to release some of their scripts encrypted. I
wonder what they feel about your software.
Sorry, but I really question the legality of this piece of software. And, I
guess I have others with me, when saying that this might break people's
inthusiasm in developing scripts. We now no longer can benefit from a
built-in feature of the Window-Eyes scripting environment. If a person at
any stage, wants to release an app for sale, he will have to undergo further
encryption or reformatting of his code, hereafter. I don't really know, if
the community should welcome this kind of software development. And as I
stated, it might even infringe local laws.

Subject: GW Script Decryptor is here!
Ever wanted to decrypt a Window-Eyes script? Here's your chance!
This newly-released command-line utility allows the decryption of WSF
files. Pass it the input and output file on the command line. For example:
decrypt script.wsf script.vbs
Will produce script.vbs from script.wsf.
If it fails to work, email me.
