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..
