Because then you have to worry about all these problems everyone is mentioning, except you have no idea and no hints that there is a serious security threat. The best thing it can do? Crash your program, hopefully during a nice debugging session. That way you know there is something wrong, and hopefully you care enough to do what it takes to properly fix it.Winner. [/quote]
I agree fully
