Hi,

Thank you for this amazing piece of software, it saved me a lot of
time of developing one myself.

I have one quick question: Why do you add the string Base64Coded to
the end of encoded string? it makes no sense.. if my system
administrator sees that he can simple look-up "base64 decoder" in
Google and decode it.
I know he can do it anyway, but it would be less obvious...

Is there a way to turn it off? why do you need this in the first
place?

Thanks

Hi,

I had reports that said the pages of ASProxy is all blocked.
The string Base64Coded is added to avoid some smart machines that
detects Base64 encoding in URL.

That string is renamed to B64Coded in new versions. Base 64 coded
strings are clear and easy to recognize and everyone who worked with
some coders can
Yet there is no way to disable it, and it is because of JavaScript
encoder.

I'll take a look at it if I can add a disable option in next release.

Regards,
Salar
