OTOH, I like the variable sorting hack in ProPolice, and thought about implementing it, but chose instead to concentrate on PointGuard, which protects all of the cases that ProPolice variable sorting protects, and then some.
I's not just a "hack" it's a great improvement that distinguish ProPolice from Stackguard. To be honest, it's the main reason why I migrated form SG to PP. Beside that PP protects function arguments unlike SG! To recapitulate: SG vs PP 0:2. -- Mariusz Wo³oszyn Internet Security Specialist, GTS - Internet Partners
