My experiences with Flash + AS2 and SWFEncrypt are very positive, even with Sothink trying to decompile and not being able to...
On the other hand, never tried with Flex. Maybe you/we should try the newer version, since changelog states: Updated for Flash 9, Flex 2/3 and ActionScript 1/2/3. ________________________________ De: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Em nome de Doug McCune Enviada em: terça-feira, 3 de junho de 2008 16:53 Para: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Assunto: Re: [flexcoders] Re: SWC Encrypt 2.0 - Does it work? That last comment isn't true. The Sothink decompiler works just fine on Flex swfs. Here's my experience with SWF Encrypt and SWC Encrypt: * We ran SWCEncrypt on a Flex SWC and then tried decompiling a Flex app created with the encrypted SWC versus the unencrypted SWC. I could not tell any difference whatsoever. Both decompiled just fine, it appeared as if SWCEncrypt did absolutely nothing to the SWC file. I don't know if we were doing soemthing wrong (although really how can you? you just run it on a SWC), or if the encryptor doesn't support Flex SWCs specifically. * SWFEncrypt, on the other hand, works. But it does not work for Flex swfs. If you try to encrypt a full Flex SWF the encryptor goes overboard and jacks up the Flex framework code and makes your SWF unrunnable. * What did seem to work was creating a SWF module that did not include the Flex framework code, encrypting that, and loading that module into a wrapper Flex app. * Neither SWCEncrypt nor SWFEncrypt seems to actually "encrypt" anything, All of it can still be decompiled with the Sothink decompiler (maybe the decompiler just knows how to decrypt whatever encryption is used). SWFEncrypt does seem to obfuscate the code though. A decompiled SWF that has been run through SWFEncrypt is harder to read than a non-obfuscated one.
