Distributing your project using py2exe probably removes the need for
bytecode encryption - unless you figure

Hi,
Use the DES example here (DES has been cracked but is definitly secure
enough for your need):

Can't help you with the Dutch ;-)

Where can I find some sample code if any?
And I'm not a professional programmer...
This is going to be hard...and my native is Dutch..
Thanks anyway
Hi,
A suggestion:
I would use encryption (ex: AES):
Hide a secret key in your code and generate an encrypted (readable: ex 07 7B
Hi,

Hide a secret key in your code and generate an encrypted (readable: ex 07 7B

Have your software input that encrypted info (some GUI di
