Nothing like taking raw data off of the network, unchecked, and passing it to malloc(). I used to work with a programmer who never wrote bounds checking or error checking code. You could pass his programs anything and they'd do something. Something unexpected, to be sure... but they're do something, and never give a hint that things were going wrong. In my opinion, GIGO is for idiots. If your program gets garbage in, it should complain loudly and refuse to do anything stupid.
