How to remove hidden links (base 64)?

Hi guys,

I've downloaded a theme I like a lot, but there seem to be half a dozen insurance links showing in the background bellow the footer.

I don't mind crediting the creator in the footer but the ones from the background have to go.

I've edited the theme and the only file that doesn't make any sense is functions.php.

I have zero knowledge about php or decoding this stuff. I've tried using base 64 decoders but all I get is more jibberish(some sort of symbols).

Can this be done?

I would really appreciate your help.

Hogre.

    Hi Hogre,

    This file was "packed" using AROHA PHPencoder ver. 1.11
    I've never heard of it, but all it does it loop base64 and gzip a few times.

    I'll post the content in the next post, because it's going to be a mess.

        Ryan, You Da Man!

        I owe you big time!

        Can I just delete these links or is it gonna mess up my theme?

        Thanks again,

        Hogre.

          The safe way is to remove the two "echo $content;" lines.
