>Hi Denis

I have'nt bought MoleBox yet. I just gave you the URL to a software that looks cool to me. As for the content of the EXE it'll be your call. If everything works well the way you do it now then perhaps no changes are necessary.

Still MoleBox could help in securing the source code of your app because MoleBox does a compression. To me this would mean no need of ReFox to protect an app against ReFox.

What I find cool about including everything in the EXE generated by MoleBox (DLL, EXE...) is for the distribution of demonstration version of an app. That way the user does'nt have to install anything on his computer (I mean other than the now bigger EXE). If that potential customer decides to buy an app then he'll have to execute the setup to install the runtimes, exe...

By the way it you look at the content of this thread you'll read the impressions of others about MoleBox. I know that others are testing it also.

I hope that I helped you a bit more on what I just told you.
