Protect it from what? Viruses? Terrorists? The corrupt government? Your ex-wife cutting it up with scissors? People who want to copy it? People who will look at your code and laugh at you for being a bad programmer? Until you tell us what you are trying to protect against, your question is meaningless. Is your program valuable? Is it worth money? Then the 90% of script kiddies will just wait three days, and download the program off the Internet after the real hackers have broken your protection. If it is NOT valuable, then why on earth do you think people will put up with whatever "protection" you use? Why won't they just use another program? > 2 - If I put the code in web like a web service, how can I protect my > code from being ripped?

[penny drops] Hang on, you want us to believe that you're a serious computer programmer with a seriously valuable program that's worth "protecting", and you don't know that?
