- Finish password encryption

Features:
Spoiler- Login menu
- Welcome menu
- Admin account
- Password encryption with StrUtils API ( Credit to tomass1996 - http://www.computerc...rch__1#entry189

- Pastebin downloading

How to download:
Spoiler1) extract installer.zip into a floppy disk
2) Insert the floppy disk and turn on the computer
3) Wait for all the files to download from pastebin

local welcomeD = SphinxAPI.readAll()

is followed by

local SphinxAPI = http.get("http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=qf2pDAsM")

What?
Didn't you mean startup.readAll() ?

I'm not downloading something as a zip that you're just going to have download more things from.

It makes the download size more manage-able. If you don't feel safe anabling http then download them straght from the link

He means, that if the zip file is just a downloader then why should he have to download it if it is just going to download all the other files? Just upload the downloader to pastebin and remove the zip download and people will be happy.

what is the problem with people and pastebin????
it's nice for a change not to see a lot of adverts when you try and get a minecraft mod!
and plus you can have a look in the file to make sure the script is not malicious :)/>
