Sure, just define a list of characters that you want to be able to follow the character from your main string and insert a random one:

        Dim s As String = "password"
        Dim sb As New StringBuilder
        Dim r As New Random
        ' list of valid characters to use after each character
        Dim alphabet As String = "1234567890/;'[]\-+|"":?ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz!@#$%^&*()"
        For Each c As Char In s
            sb.Append(c)
            sb.Append(alphabet.Substring(r.Next(0, alphabet.Length), 1))
        Next

        MessageBox.Show(sb.ToString())

When you're talking about anything random your pretty much talking about using a Random object to generate a random number and then using that number appropriately for the app, e.g. to convert to a Char.

In your case you can loop through the characters in a String and alternately add a random Char to a StringBuilder and then a Char from the String. At the end you'll have a string like you want.

Note that you can loop through the characters in a String using a For or For Each loop as though it was an array.
