Dotfuscator CE

[GaryDean]

I'm trying to use DotFuscator Community edition but the help is for
Professional edition. The process appears intentionally arcane. Is there
any material on how to use the Community Edition anywhere?

Sorry to blow your bubble, but I have occasionally run into "Dotfuscated"
assemblies that for one reason or another (not to "steal somebody's code")
I've had to decompile in order to understand what is happening in the
original code. Almost without exception, I have only found obfuscation to be
an annoyance; it hasn't prevented me at all from finding out what I needed to
know.

Most of the free obfuscators, and some of the paid versions, suck. Many do
little more than symbol renaming and slight code flow obfuscation (adding
crap that is easy to determine is fake). Very few of the cheap/free versions
do any sort of string or blob encryption, leaving very important information
exposed, esp. when the user has not followed proper security guidelines.
