Yes, but,
I don't think APC, while a good cacher, has the source code protecting
(encoding into opcode code) feature?
There is the Ioncobe encoder, Zend encoder and Turck that I know of. Of
course any of them would suit me (just one opinion while everyone has one),
but Turck is the only free one *I* know of. Well, if there is going to be a
winner comtest, maybe Ioncube or Zend wants to join it, I don't know.
