Answer 1

Developer Fusion .NET Code Converter goes both ways and its a free open source alternative to Visual Studio .NET

Answer 2

I would use a tool like reflector to generate c# based off of the MSIL, rather than trying to do a source level conversion.

You will however lose comments and some variable names this way.

Answer 4

SharpDevelop has a VB.Net to C# converter. You can also back the other way and you can convert to Boo. I've not use the converter, so I make no guarantees on how good it is. However, it is free, and it's a pretty decent IDE for .Net to boot.

I have had good results with VBConversions in the past.
