So now what can I say to get them to listen to me?  Somebody else on here
had the theory that MBAM is keeping their controls custom so that the
program can't be automated by scripting languages like AutoIt and VBScript.
Even my friend thought that mod was a little nuts.

it only means that some of there custom controls wouldn't look so 
pretty behind the scenes, and may make some above board look a bit 
different. But as far as making the code easier to break for malware? 
not at all.
Some coders out there think of the standard code as plane Jane code 
or boring code. The more complicated they make the cooler they think 
others think of them. Kind of like a guru of code or something like that.
Sure using basic code here and there ain't pretty under the hood, but 
it still works just as fine and is easy to read when need too.
