Hi, I am not realy interested in spending *thousands* (i.e. dash-o) (or even
$300 for that matter-something else) of dollars on a java bytecode
obfuscator.

And yet all the supposedly free ones don't work. For example, one called
'marvin' or something, seemed to work.. but the jar files wouldn't run even
after I added a new manifest. jmangle had a similar problem, and so did
javaguard. the jar files wouldnt run, but the original .jar files would work
just fine.

Don't I have any real choices here?
