There is also the other unfortunate aspect of .NET apps being so
easily reverse engineered. That is that if you're app becomes
popular it's a breeze to have all security checks removed from your
latest version that you'll slaved over and distributed free of
charge, even if it is uninteresting code. I think that is what most
people are worried about.
