encryption: Windows is encrypted... are you frustrated because Microsoft encrypted parts of the OS you use on your computer ?!... it's their way to hide some cool features they copied from Apple, but hey.. lol

i never encrypted my stuff though, and never will, even if in the next weeks i'm going full commercial/pro ... encryption is for some professional secrets you want to hide, but vBulletin is built from PHP and MySQL, both engines uncrypted... if i want to encrypt something, it will be because i create a complete new engine, nothing else.

but that was debated not long ago, last month if i remember right...
