- LSW IL-Obfuscator
-------------------
- Executables of .NET (.NET Assemblies ) are easy to decompile.
- Several .NET decompilers are published which allows to upload
- Assemblies for Decompilation. Decompilation of Assemblies to
- human readable source-code is possible because of the
- containment of meta data in the Assemblies and because of the
- higher level of the compiled "MSIL" code. The LSW IL-Obfuscator
- ( LSW-ILOBF ) is a tool to make the Decompilation "useless"
- because it destroys the Metadata information by replacing
- meaningful Names by meaningless ones. It helps to protect the
- intellectual property of software-authors.

- Salamander .NET protector

- steal your source code. With this tool, you no longer need to
- worry about the biggest headache of Microsoft .NET platform -
- decompilation.
- http://www.programmersheaven.com/search/download.asp?FileID=23086
- Salamander .NET obfuscator
----------------------------
- Salamander .NET obfuscator offers the most sophisticated
- technologies to protect your intellectual properties. It
- transforms your .NET assemblies in such a way that
- decompilation of the new format would result in source codes
- that are extremely difficult to understand, and virtually
- impossible to be recompiled.
- http://www.programmersheaven.com/search/download.asp?FileID=23085
- Salamander .NET decompiler
----------------------------
- Salamander is a .NET decompiler that converts executable files
- (.EXE or .DLL) from Intermediate Language (IL) binary format to
- high-level source codes, such as C#, managed C++, Visual
- Basic.NET, etc. For more than 8,000 classes that have been
- tested, Salamander always produces equivalent and recompilable
- codes that are remarkably close to the original source codes.
- http://www.programmersheaven.com/search/download.asp?FileID=23084
- Dotfuscator
-------------
- Dotfuscator is the premier .NET Obfuscator, .NET Optimizer, and
- .NET Shrinker. The Dotfuscator family of products attacks some
