Crypt
This is a simple xor encrypt\decrypt method. It is available here in the thread to copy\paste or as an include file. I wrote it for someone by request but figured others may be able to use it. Also included below is an equivalent in VB, php, and C.

Commands
CreateCrypt( Crypt , "your string" ) - Create a crypt string; this basically copies a string, it's size, and encrypt\decrypt status into a struct which can then be used in CryptString() function. Crypt is a variable sized by the CryptInfo enum: new Crypt[ CryptInfo ]
CryptString( Crypt , "key" ) - This will toggle-crypt the string (encrypt->decrypt, decrypt->encrypt).

#include <amxmodx>

new const Version[] = "0.1";

const CRYPT_MAX_LEN = 512;

enum CryptInfo
{
    C_Len,
    C_String[ CRYPT_MAX_LEN + 1 ],
    bool:C_IsEncrypted
}

public plugin_init()
{
    register_plugin( "Crypt Example" , Version , "bugsy" );
    
    new Crypt[ CryptInfo ];

    if ( CreateCrypt( Crypt , "This is the string I want to [en\de]crypt" ) )
    {
        server_print( "Original: [%s] [Len=%d] [Encrypted? %s]" , Crypt[ C_String ] , Crypt[ C_Len ] , Crypt[ C_IsEncrypted ] ? "Yes" : "No" );

        CryptString( Crypt , "this is a key" );
