I don't know about 'security reasons' - my resident expert contrator on .NET said "whats he on about?" when I asked him.

We have one project we maintain for a client which was done in Active States Perl for .NET. Development time is a lot longer than for the same thing done other ways, so we call our resident expert the dinosaur tamer, but it has been quite succesfull, we haven't found any serious problems or vulnerabilities. We didn't create the application, we just maintain and enhance it.
