That's not a terribly good resource in my opinion. Everyone who calls
hiding the presence of PHP a form of security measure should look up
"security by obscurity" at Wikipedia. The section on register_globals
misses the bigger issue as well. The fundamental problem is the
reliance on global variables--a poor programming practice in general.
