    Resolved [RESOLVED] How Do You Protect Your C# Code From Being Disassembled

    I just found a program called decompiler .net and it disassembles your code down to C# (not asssembler).

    How can you prevent this?

    It does. The full Visual Studio is equipped with Dotfuscator CE. It's certainly not industrial strength but will foil casual attempts to disassemble your app. If you want something better then its all about the $'s.

    Your right, it does. The document I was reading was wrong.


    Thanks for the help
