    There is a program call Reflector which can decompile any .NET program (as long as it is not obfuscated) to VB, C#, Delphi .NET or CIL. It is not 100% accurate, but it gets the job done.

    That's why .NET is not good. a) It's not cross platform compatible, even through WINE
    b) If you don't want it to be open-source, some kid can just decompile it and release your source.
    That's why I switched from C# .NET to Delphi 7. Delphi 7 != decompileable.

    If you don't want it open source, you could just obfuscate it with the obfuscator that comes with Visual Studio. Also, if you wanted cross platform compatibility, you could just compile it with Mono.
