How easy is C# to crack? Are there easily available decompilers out there?

I am making an C# application and I wonder how secure my app is.

Unless .NET apps are obfuscated, they are very easy to decompile due to the
reflection metadata that is an inherent part of all .NET languages. Have you
not used Reflector to see what is in the .NET framework assemblies ?

Use a decent obfuscator; there are several on the market. But be warned that
x86 code was always crackable, it's not a new thing with .NET :-)

Yes, its easily crackable and viewable using free tools like .Net Reflector.
The only protection against this is to code-protect your .Net assemblies using obfuscators like Crypto Obfuscator
