Not particularly effective… have written a better one long time ago
Care to share it ???
Long time ago… don’t know if I still have it; besides, it was written for a specific purpose, so it might cause problems with a general code (additionally, the GUI wasn’t particularly intuitive, as with most of my own tools ;)).
Anyway, I suggest to be careful with similar tools - this compressor is OK I guess, as it’s quite “simple”, but more sophisticated compressors might be considered as cryptors… and the result is likely to get detected by antiviruses as malicous (or suspicious at least).
Hi igor,
This is not obfuscating. Is not it that obfuscating packers are more likely to be detected as having malware characteristics?

I know this tool is quite simple, and the result is readable mostly the same as the original script. I was trying to say that if you move a bit further… you may soon appear in a grey area.
What is an “obfuscation” anyway? Turning a human-readable script into something more or less unreadable.
For example, if you wanted to achieve the best possible compression (for large scripts), you’d probably make a real compression algorithm (LZ, Huffman, …), compress the script with that - and on the decompression side, you’d perform the unpacking and then call “eval(decompressed_code)”. This would qualify as obfuscation, IMHO - because the compressed part would be completely unreadable, just like you can’t open a ZIP file in Notepad and see what’s inside.
BTW can someone suggest a free bat compiler (to .exe/.com) that isn’t regarded like suspicious by anti virus?
