Low level / High level: The lowest level code that a processor can interpret (besides binary) is known as Machine Code. Assembly is the next step up. One more step higher bring you into languages as C. C technically isn't a low level language; however, many programmers consider it as one because it provides links to direct system memory addresses, so it can pretty much blend with assembly (it is abstracted from assembly). High level languages pretty much have to deal with objects. Funtions, threads, etc. Pretty much, High level languages cannot be converted DIRECTLY (they can be indirectly) converted to machine code. Java, C#, .NET, (and some low level programmers consider C++) are examples of high-level programming languages. There is another term known as "Very-High-level" programming languages, and those are pretty much application-based. If I'm not mistaken, whatever you guys use to code scripts in Simba is a "very high level" programming language, as is MSL.
There was no extra code to write in Java that I would not have had to in Delphi \ C++.
They could use Java, monitor the people's accounts, and then strike when they wanted... There is no need for a rootkit ...
