How exactly do you allege that no application can ever be 100% secure?
You *do* realize that this depends on many factors and applications
can indeed be secure (yes, that's right--100%).  Protocols, interfaces,
and so on can pose security issues that affect any application, but
the application itself and how it's coded can be completely secure.
Granted, it seems rare that it's the case, but I guarantee it's more
than possible to accomplish.
