The "Secure bundled script" option will help. From the docs:
*Secure bundled script:* Checking this option will bundle your script into
the generated application in a simple, encrypted format instead of plain
text. Please note that *this will not stop a determined hacker from getting
a clear-text version of your script*. In order for your script to be
executed, it must be presented in clear-text to the interpreter. However,
this may serve to dissuade a less determined tinkerer. Please note that
applications created with this option must run on a system where the user
has write privileges to the /tmp directory. This is standard on almost all
Mac OS X systems, but may not be the case in some networked environments.
