You can't. You can make it harder by obfuscating and by deploying release insted of debug version.

There is a way to really complicate it for the one decompling here on CP - search for it, I don't have a link handy. But even that only makes it harder.

If you don't want your code decompiled, use C++ instead of .NET.

The only way is to use an obfuscator.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_obfuscators_for_.NET[^]
It obfuscates the MSIL so that you only get obfuscated code when decompiling which does not reveal its logic to the human reader.
