That is really cool. I do not think I would ever run it unless I had already gone and looked at what was going to happen this particular time. Even Still, it is a very cool idea, and well obfuscated to boot.

Hey kids! Remember what your mother told you:

• Never talk to strangers
  
• Never get into a stranger's car
  
  and...

• Never run a strangers perl code that you don't understand.

  This is especially importiant if there is an eval or system statement involved. While most things posted here by monks are harmless; monks occasionnaly post code with some teeth for "interest."

  Perl safe!

And the most usefull tool I have found for understanding obfuscated code:

perl -MO=Deparse script.pl

Does not take always make it obvious what the code is doing, but at least makes it easier to read and figure out.
