    No.

    There are no, good, free obfuscators. Obfuscation is a tricky process and free applications just won't do if you expect it to actually do anything useful.

    You can easily find free de-obfuscation software that will rip the code apart in seconds.

    If you want a a good obfuscator, then you're going to have to pay for it. But they're expensive.

    But really, there's very little reason that most people need to actually obfuscate their software. Most users won't know how to disassemble it and most of the others won't care.

    There was another guy on here a little while ago that was afraid of "hackers" that he was releasing his software to, would steal his code. Actually, I think he just wanted to prevent them from looking at some string, but whatever. We told him about the built in tool for VS and he thought it was the greatest thing since slice bread.

    Then I told him that I did a quick test and obfuscated an application and then spent 5 minutes finding a free de-obfuscation tool, downloading and ripping apart the obfuscation. It was so simple and made the obfuscation entirely irrelevant.
