Security in DotNet programs

[Mohammad-Reza]

Hi
I recently download and installed a program and its discompile a .NET
program to any C# and VB.NET easily...
What does it mean? Its means that dot net is easy to crack or something?
What can I do solve this big problem(I mean security in my code).

Unfortunately, I think the answer is yes. The only way I know of to protect
the source code is to use some kind of obfuscator

You can change your program's design so it doesn't rely on "security
through obscurity". If your program becomes insecure when people can
find out how it works, you're probably doing something wrong.
