While not nearly as secure as Blowfish (not by a long shot), this modest
encryption script can at least slow down hacks, and as a script is fully
embeddable:

I wouldn't recommend it for data requiring really strong security, but
the sort of person able to crack it is likely able to do a memory dump,
so it's probably no less secure than limiting stacks to RAM.
