| WAY back when, I used to write chat programs and BBS programs and every damned one had back doors. The reasoning was, you never wanted to be locked out of your own code in case something catastrophic happened with the password module and you didn't have immediate access to the physical location the box was. And, too, if you owned a program, let someone use it and they decided to "make it their own", it was nice to have a way to yoink control back and wipe their drive.
