The only downside here is that I believe this limits the people who can
open the file to Windows users, maybe Mac.
Don't worry, linux users have a zip and unzip option too (though I'll
have to RTFM to see if passwords are supported). Though I personally
would prefer to get a .tar.gz (or .tar.bz2 will be best).
WTF, ROT13 it, and call the file exploit.pl.rot13.txt . I have yet to
see a program that can handle pattern matching like humans can.
