<div>
maybe you you could move the appkey in a confi section and then encrypt this config section?<br />
<br />
What is Google? -&gt; Good question :-) : <a href="http://bit.ly/t3qmjp" rel="ugc">http://bit.ly/t3qmjp</a>

Thanks this was good the aspnet_regiis did the trick. &nbsp;I am hoping to find an easier way to do a windows forms app as well. &nbsp; I have done this with creating an installer class and encrypt on install think I may have to do that but was hoping something the same with my app.config for a windows forms app. &nbsp;I tried using the aspnet_regiis thought it might work with Data Protection reg but doesn't seem to work.

The successor to Active Server Pages, ASP.NET websites utilize the .NET framework to produce dynamic, data and content-driven web applications and services. ASP.NET code can be written using any .NET supported language. As of 2009, ASP.NET can also apply the Model-View-Controller (MVC) pattern to web applications

ASP.NET

C# is an object-oriented programming language created in conjunction with Microsoft’s .NET framework. Compilation is usually done into the Microsoft Intermediate Language (MSIL), which is then JIT-compiled to native code (and cached) during execution in the Common Language Runtime (CLR).
