Hi ,

Since runtime executes based on IL it is easy to dissassemble any code. The only option to protect your code is to obfuscate it. There are many third party tools available for that.

Try using

dotfuscator - community version of this is available in visual studio.net tools

you can also go for paid ones like xenocode which is more powerful.

Hope this solves your problem

Cheers,

Well use strong name technology to enable versioning for your dll. It will not stop ppl from using ildasm tool. You can consider a few software, obfuscation to make things harder for cracker or there is a software by remotesoft that converts your .net assembly to native code. Cheers.
