ntdll··on How small is the smallest .NET Hello World binary?
You're right, but there are a few subtle differences here and there that often make Windows Forms recognizable.

The best example I got off the top of my head is KeePass v1 [0] and KeePass v2 [1]. v1 is written in C++ with native controls, and v2 uses Windows Forms.

If you look at the menu bar and the toolbar, you'll see a difference. Most notably the drag handle on the left, and the search box on the right, in v2. The difference is often a bit easier to spot on Windows 7.

Not true in my experience. The "look and feel" of the program usually gives it away more or less immediately.

There's nothing snake oil about SQRL. Can you back up your claims?
