Yes, write horrible apps :))LOL. That's how the NET protection schemes work- they recognize that you can't prevent an assembly being pulled apart so they obfuscate and overload heavily so it's horrible once you do so. Seems to me that's a better model for VFP whose apps also are easy enough to convert back to a project. Walling schemes that work well for properly compiling development languages are less suitable if there's IL in there that can be tricked into revealing all.
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
