Quote:poorly coded sections,
IMO, there is a difference between a mistake/oversight and simply "poorly coded sections". A mistake or oversight being something which was simply not realised, whereas poorly coded sections originating out of complete ignorance of the correct way of doing something.
For instance
cout << "do whatever\n";
cout << "Don't do whatever/n";
Oh shit, wrong slash on the second Cout. Poorly coded? IMO, no, just a mistake. IF all throughout the program however, the coder used "/" instead of "\", b/c they were too stupid to realise they were doing it wrong, then it would be poorly coded.
This really isn't the best analagoy either though I guess - the programs in question are much more complicated. It's important to keep in mind too, that there are more than one way to accomplish the same thing (say antidetect), so it can be difficult to protect against every possible *weak* point in that said antidetect.
