I'm not sure if I made this point clear though, just to defend myself somewhat.

He didn't write the codelock.php file, it's an older version of the software located at this site: http://www.codelock.co.nz/encryptor/index.php

So he used the older version, and just doesn't have the key anymore to give me. So i'm not trying to break his decryption, but just access the files that he gave me permission to view.

If you use the codelock.php program, it's the program itself that says not to reverse engineer the software, but not his code. So.. yeah.. just sayin'
