CMS question.

Hi all, I have a friend who have paid a developper to build him a CMS. This honest programmer did that (supposedly developped it on his own), encoded the CMS with Ioncube and did some other unethical activities as well. To make a long story short, I have read some articles about decoding and cracking the source / reverse engineering, and it looks like it is time consuming and also illegal. I have taken snapshots of the CMS and put them available to whoever is interested in giving me a hand to see if this CMS is an open source one? note the php files: categories_list.php, content_list.php and content_edit.php. the CM is also capable to upload in batch... ? It might be a mix of CMS and an Image Gallery script pakcage.. I also see that Smarty (template engine) is installed in the same root directory of the CMS, I am not familiar with Smarty, and since the code is encoded I have no way to tell wether it's being used with it or not.. Any hints would be appreciated! snapshots available here: http://www.onlinecardonation.com/img1.jpg http://www.onlinecardonation.com/img2.jpg http://www.onlinecardonation.com/img3.jpg PS: the CMS is not used for the website above where I put the images :) Thanks!
