-snip- >-- Mike Mike, the best advice I can give on this, is don't bother. Without a better and faster eval to do most of the work, the return isn't worth it. Believe me I know. I set my sights on flags with better returns. You can pick some of the more common OBFU stuff. It will last a while, but then they will simply change. Not worth the time. --chris
