By deploying your application as a Web service. Any time code must
exist on a client machine, it is vulnerable. If you cannot deploy as a
web service, then check out code obfuscators, which make it more
difficult. Click this link for more information:

Mary is right, anytime you give out an executable it is impossible to
guarantee that the client cannot reverse engineer your application (while
ensuring it runs atleast).  This problem goes away with the web application
model.  If this is not an option, you can raise the bar by embracing a good
obfuscator.  Good obfuscators can add spaghetti flow, rename stuff, perform
overload induction....all in attempts of making the job of reverse
engineering harder.
