Vexorian's Map Optimizer.
Spazzler.
Heavy Locker.
Widgetizer.
And in case you're asking for the "best"

Answer
You can't find 'the best'. No matter what you use, some people will still be able to edit your map without any trouble.

Vexorian's Map Optimizer - is good for optimisation. It reduces file size, but is no trouble to pass (most of deprotection tools will make your map editable). But it protects from noobs\plain edits. So that's what I use for maps that I edit.

Spazzler - is more 'heavy' tool. Better protection, not as small map, and maybe a bit longer loading time. But makes the map un-editable for most of users.

Heavy locker - one of the first programs of this kind that I know of, basically similar to vexorian's, except other priorities.

Widgetizer - converts object data files into widgets (text files). This results in a bit bigger filesize, but you can leave the map 'as-is': if someone will open it in World Editor, they will see no object data. So most likely they'll say 'wtf' and leave your map alone. Unfortunally there is dewidgetizer too.

Protecting maps is pointless, as people have said with most people can still open it anyway - for others they completely ruin your map making it impossible to play.

If someone edits your map let them, it's obvious their work won't pay off if they have to use someone else's map to make something worthwhile.


Yes, you guys are right :D I will only write on Loading Screen where players can download true versions....i cant stop this fakers :)
