String encryption in a .NET assembly

Are there any free tools similar to Dotfuscator? I want to encrypt or obfuscate certain strings inside my .NET assembly.

I would think obfuscators only change the symbolnames, but not string literals.

So for extra String protection you'd need to garble/ungarble (encrypt/decrypt) the text yourself

But look out. If the strings are really sensitive, the best encryption won't do you good, since if the decryption method/keys are in the same program as well (since the program needs the decrypted version of the text) than your strings are still able to be decrypted.
