I can recommend PC Guard from http://www.sofpro.com/ to protect your
DLL:s (no affiliation). The DLL is protected against attempts to debug
it and all ways of manipulation that I know of. You can of course lock
it so that it will only run on a specific PC using a number of diffeent
hardware parts (BIOS, CPU, HDs etc. etc.).
