[Full-disclosure] Why a Computer Programming *History* Class is Needed Re: The Mystery of the Duqu Framework

It is not a framework, but a style. A struct with function pointers is
essentially a class. Someone already pointed out that the binary code
was generated by MS C compiler. Try a web search for "Object-Oriented
ANSI C".

During the old days, the OO style C was quite common in MS Windows SDK
Win32 API samples.
