I am not sure if this is the correct forum for an obfuscation question, so sorry if it isn't.
I found a free obfuscator on line. The link is below. I tested it on a copy of my exe, and the .exe still worked after the process was done. How can I know if this program actually obfuscted the exe, and how well it did it. I am using Visual Basic 6. I am not looking for some top notch obfuscator, just some added protection.

Thank you for your information.
Well, you have the original exe. You can start by comparing it to the obfuscated exe to see if there is any difference. Then you can load it in the DOS debugger to see it the same code is executing in both exe's.
I did a search on the DOS debugger, and it looks a bit over my head right now. I did reopen the obfuscated exe in the program, and some of the things had odd names, instead of the original names. Everything I have seen online says that VB exe's are very hard to get the original code from, so I am not going to put any more effort into it at this time.
Thank you for your reply.
