Hello,
I just wondered what is the security on compiled executables and scripts
I love the idea of an executable that does alot of the work for me but with alot
of hidden remote access or stealing files, user id and passwords, cracks, loopholes
it is quite possible to steal the executables from someones computer if they know how.
I am a lazy person so i use macroscheduler for alot of things i probably shouldnt use it for. eg. logging into banks.
Is there a way to make the executable only run on my pc?

At the beginning you could check IfFileExists> for a special file, you could check the date of a file, and/or its size. You could check for a registry value, you could check for the name of your hard drive, or your MAC id, etc.Is there a way to make the executable only run on my pc?
Lots of things..... if value not found then exit macro immediately.
------------------
A few basic comments about security on your macro files:
There is a CRYPT> command to encrypt data strings.
Macros can alco be encrypted with a password needed to edit the macro file.
Compiled macros are binary files, not text.
Hope this was helpful..................good luck,
