Habitat, you're an idiot and just confusing things further. This thread is littered with links pointing out that string is a reference type. Here's are two more: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/362314fe(VS.71).aspx.

Do you know what a stack is? Do you know what interning is? Do you know you can write: string s = null;?
String is a reference type that often "behaves" like a value type.
To quote you directly: "If you dont know anything - dont confuse others!!!"

Answer / djfox7200x
Strings are immutable.Hence they behave like a value type
when they are actually reference type;
eg. string objA="cat";
//cat is an immutable string in memory and objA points to
it.
string b=a; //reference is copied to b;
a="dog"; new immutable object created and a points to it;
//b is still cat since its refernce has not changed
