Dear Richard:
I swear it was running ON MY SYSTEM the last time it was up and running. And my system can use 5.94 without a problem! Please let me use it off line from the internet and I will bless you and find a way to recompense you!
Sorry, but a lot rides on this, Yshua

The only current, supported, versions of BB4W are v5.95a and v6.00a. v5.94a is obsolete, unsupported and unavailable.

The 'secure' utility was developed to placate a paranoid BB4W user (not you) who felt that the risk of somebody reverse-engineering his programs was too great. It attempted to prevent a debugger being able to examine the contents of memory - something a debugger is supposed to be able to do! This was only possible because of an 'accidental' feature of Windows, which has probably since been fixed thus making the utility worthless anyway.
Standard BB4W executables are adequately secure against all but the most determined hackers, so long as you enable the 'Encrypt & compress' option (which is enabled by default).
