I'm not relying on people not seeing my code, which is what would qualify as security through obscurity. I make the source code to the forum available. So anyone can read it and try to disassemble what I've done. Its usefulness lies in the strength of the cryptographic key as stated in the article. All I've done is slow hackers down with new keys 'cause they'd have to start a new library for my hashes or figure out a way to deconstruct my key (which is unlikely since it takes input of nth size).

I know how to use htaccess files Wiz, I'm just saying that someone else who's not savvy might not know or feel hesitant and not want to tinker with those sort of options. The idea behind the bulletin board is that it be as simple as tweaking some things in the config of the board itself and then just uploading it and it takes care of the rest.
