Hi,
Because of all the changes recently, I've started using my provider's search/browse tools and I've noticed there are a fair amount of posts with obfuscated file names.
(example: IVSrqaijGJCa5fP....)
Are these encoded or encrypted? Can someone provide with me a hint?

Probably NOT encrypted. Just obfuscated. And you probably know why.

Hint:
- just Google the code you posted, and you'll know what it contains
and/or
- download the accompanied jpg's and you'll know what it contains.

Because of the forum policy, I have removed a few letters from the example code you posted.

Thanks Sander and sorry I didn't know that would violate policy. I will be more diligent in the future.
