The script has its potential. However I will never use it in an online environment for two reasons...

1) it didn't verify that I was an admin when I just ran it for the first time ever and I haven't logged into the admin control panel during this browser session. If I didn't have .htaccess authorization in place this would be an even larger risk.

2) the fact that it requires you to chmod your files and directories for writing is the most known fact of something you should not do if you are at all interested in the security of your site.

I will use it on my own local machine to generate text files that can then be used by me to apply any hacks I choose. I doubt it would be able to apply hacks to my code any way.
