Your +1 interesting dosen't seem to have been revoked :)
Take three parts perl and one part iptables. Mix thouroughly. Serves 1.
If you mean assembler, ten you can write self-modifying code, but even that isn't impenetrable.
Umm... Mod points expire after 3 days, and your mods vanish if you post in a thread where you used them. RTFFAQ!!!
