In my app I have a MessageBox like the following:

this.MessageBox.Show("Hello");

Question: How do I encrypt the String "Hello" in C# (2.0), so that the user
can't "directly" see the String, for example while using Lutz Roeders .NET
Reflector?
What about using SecureString?
 
If you encrypt the string ... they will still have the code to decrypt the
string after using reflector no, not much of a jump for them to decrypt the
string no?

Cheers,

Greg

SecureString is for in-memory secure strings, to ensure they don't get
written to disk in the page file, for example.
