encrypting the php code (hiding the code:)
Besides using Zend's product is has anyone experimented with an alternative way to hide you code?
Put it under the bed.. 
One way is simple scrambling, it doesnt hide code but makes it difficult ot unscramble and use.. I assume that these may slow things down a bit..
http://www.sourcecop.com/
http://sourceguardian.com/products/phppro.htm
then there is
http://www.ioncube.com/
which I believe does a bytecode like encoding (like zend does)..
But when looking at the pricing and stuff on these things I would say you're better off with the Small Business Deal from Zend, editor, encoder, optimizer for under $300..

there is a free open source PHP accelerator, optimizer, encoder and dynamic content cache system available from Turck MMCache though obviously you need admin server access to compile it.
