Uncheck the diff patch in NEMO for something like "Use multiple GRFs". That will force your client to use data.grf and rdata.grf, and maybe adata.grf, I think. You can then hex your client. Use GRF Editor to encrypt your GRF and produce a custom cps.dll and you should be a little safer if you're not going to use any client-side protection.

It's the files that are encrypted. You can overwrite them or add more files, but you can't extract the files without the password/key.
