well, you could look at one of the dotfuscator upgrades or competing products.  Dotfuscator starts at the right price point though

making your classes internal will help as well as nobugz suggests.

There is only one way to compile your .exe.  Make your classes internal, they should be by default unless you declared them public.

Could we know the name of your application so we can keep an eye out for your future work.  Using the express edition and having a problem with people stealing your work is unique.
