Daniel0 Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 Third party spam bots cannot access your database (unless you give out your login credentials). If you wish to encrypt data (and still be able to decrypt it again) you might want to look at [url=http://php.net/mcrypt]the mcrypt extension[/url].
