Re: Deploying a site out in the WWW

Use cryptography functions to encrypt and decrypt data in the
querystring. This is what I use:

http://www.willasrari.com/blog/index.php/2006/01/17/csharp-cryptostrea
m-encrypt-decrypt-database-passwords/

I originally used that tutorial to encrypt the password to store in a
database. You can just as easily edit it to encrypt/decrypt the
querystring, username, id, etc...

It's in C# but converting to VB.NET shouldn't be too difficult.


Thanks, I'm using c# so that's fine.
