PhpCipher is an encryption without a loader that can be decoded 100% correctly. It doesn’t matter if the files have been encoded with a license or not, they can be decoded without errors.

Phpcipher.bin is encoded with Zend Guard and php 5.2 and it can be decoded by any decoder made for IonCube and php 5.2. You can find, free on the internet, the following programs: iDezender_40 or iDezender8.
- Change the extension “phpcipher.bin” to “phpcipher.php”.
- Put the file into one of the decoders above and it will be decoded.
You can extract then this array: “$phpCipher2873a7e1e7e09b518d6c49ad2391d5d0“. Keep in mind that this key is unique for each script.
