Copyright can be thorny at times. Any original work which you create in most countries automatically gain copyright protection. This is the situation in the UK, where there is no need to contact authorities or pay fees to have something copyrighted (In fact there is no such procedure).

If someone was to decompile your executable and completely reimplement the algorithm then this is legally fine. Notice I mentioned "completely"; this would involve rewriting the decompiled code to avoid the similarities in syntax whilst performing the same algorithm. Now if they were to pass your original code (however they gain it) off as their own or using the decompiled code without reimplemtation this will break that copyright protection.

Copyright doesn't protect the idea or algorithm, only the implementation of that idea/algorithm. If you want to protect an idea/algorithm then patents are the only legal means. E.g. Amazon patented the one-click shopping cart. Personally though, I think patents are nasty, and hinder software development.

I'm no lawyer, so what I've said may not be totally accurate.

Regards, Graham.
