    Hi guys, I am trying to be a good developer and encrypt as much information as possible, and that includes web.config... I know how to do that, but, I was wondering if pre-compiling the project after the encryption process would create any problems. Thanks in advance, Nila

      How does encrypting everything equate to being a good developer? It isn't on my standard list of things to do on a project and in most cases it isn't even on the radar either.

          I'm not. I'm trying to understand your thought process. From rereading my post I can see that it could be interpreted that way for which I appologise. I am curious why you thought that encrypting things was a mark of a good developer.

            Hi Colin, I agree with you in that just because a developer knows how to look-up msdn2 and encrypt his/her code doesn't mean that he/she is a good developer. In my original posting what I meant to say was: (I am trying to be a good developer) && (encrypt as much info as I can). Unfortunately we don't automatically think in that logic ;) Nila
