Valdis, I tend to like Delphi and agree with the guy, but you are 100% correct. That is because [especially] in the world of security the following words should be banned: all, every, never, etc. I bet that if you put a backdoor into a program written in Delphi it will no longer be 100% secure, right? That may be a bit of immature nitpicking, but really..
