PHP guys - can Zend Encoder be decoded?

I'm considering letting people use a high-end traffic redirect script I recently developed, but need to encode it first. Can Zend Encoder be reversed?

TIA

My understanding is that encoded files are gzip'd like X random times.

Actually, Zend optimizes the code, obsfuscates it, then encodes it with a proprietary algorithm.

I know it's certainly possible to decode anything. The question is whether there are any tools available *today* to decode it. Is it being decoded already. If not, I might go ahead and release it.

I know of some russians who could do it, and get the source to 97% of the original.

Wow really, wheels turning...

I mean I don't want to steal code but some of these guys are zend happy and lie about how much of the source is available and refuse a refund. But better left alone

Yes it can be done but the average Joe or even PHP programmer wouldn't be able to do so.

Thanks everyone for the replies.

Hmm.. spending $2,800 for the encoder, to use on a free script... probably not worth it. I know I can get a cheaper version, but I'd want the perpetual license.

if you don't want to spend the money on zend take a look at IonCube - they have a web based encoder where you pay (i think) $.50 / encoded file.
