Another cool one I thought up in high school and my wiz teacher completed for me because he thought it was a good idea, was that we knew where a basic program was going to be in memory, and then knew where the end of the few lines of password code would be (at the beginning), then we multiplied everything that remained in memory by a certain algorithm and then saved it that way. The first few lines would run, the user would enter the password, and then the algorithm would divide everything by the ascii values of the password restoring everything to the way it was and enabling the program to run. The bad thing was (for the interloper or forgettful user) was that if you enter the wrong password it scambles what's in memory. Kind of cool.
