PHPShield is suppose to be free?

[Zombiedevice]

I'm getting this error

Code: [Select]

PHP script /home/content/z/o/m/zombiedevice/html/classes/config.php is protected by phpSHIELD and requires the phpSHIELD loader phpshield.5.2.lin. The phpSHIELD loader has not been installed, or is not installed correctly. Please visit the phpSHIELD php encoder site to download required loader.

From what I've searched of the forum, I need to install PHPShield. Which I went to their site and they said it's 75 dollars, but every one else says it's free.

To me this feels like the "catch" in using PHPMotion. Get PHPMotion for free, but have to buy the excess stuff.

You don't need phpSHIELD, you need (as the error states) the phpSHIELD loader, which is free.

PHPmotion is free, and you don't have to buy any "excess stuff".

I have the same problem. I uploaded the loader and it still didn't work. My host has also told me that I need to buy the shield ... and that I also need to upgrade my account to be able to use it! :-/

Who is your host?  They may not support PHPmotion, but you definitely do not need phpSHIELD.  All you need are the free loaders that phpSHIELD offers for download on their site.
