Lots of licensed and some free of charge script-driven applications have encoded program code, that isn't human readable. The reasoning behind this is to stop the reverse engineering as well as the unauthorized usage of such apps. One of the most popular encryption software tools used for this purpose is named Zend Guard and it's popular since it can be used to change any kind of PHP 4 or PHP 5 code. The only way for the encrypted files to work the right way on a web server subsequently is when one more instrument called Zend Optimizer is available. In case you would like to employ any paid web software which needs Zend Optimizer, you need to ensure that it is set up on the server where you'll host your website. Also, websites which require the instrument will perform better due to the fact that their code is already precompiled and optimized, which means that it's executed more rapidly.
