How safe and feasable is it ?

JBV,

Encryption is not that hard. Check out my encryption demo stack in RevOnLine.

You could encrypt the script(s) before you unload them and decrypt the scripts in the standalone which would have the decryption parameters and be password protected itself. The scripts would be encrypted when uploading to the server, on the server, and downloading from the server. The only time they would be unprotected is when your standalone decrypts it in memory.

Having said that I would suggest the path of making it a password protected stack that you are downloading with the scripts. It is very easy to do and you can put as many scripts in it as you want.

This is how InfoWallet works. Standalone (you distribute) + Program stack (downloads) + User Data Stacks (where user data is).
