Hi Tjeerd, The problem is that you can decompile flash movies with something like ActionScript Viewer. Meaning you can just easily browse the code. In readable form, by my knowledge you would always have a bit of the algoritmn in the flash movie to make it all. Meaning you can see how they

It does not mean that you can't distribute actionscript source, just that the logic can't all be in the client side AS. In general, relying on the secrecy of the algorithm is not good security. On Oct 29, 2006, at 2:51 PM, Tjeerd Boerman wrote: Thanks Ron, this is response really helped
