Well, but then you need to know all patterns of malicous code that could
occur. I think this will be a lot of patterns that you have to search
for, so that the search will take a long time.

Well, ASM (assembler) comes also down to 1 and 0 if you think about
machine-code that is used by the processor. I thaught you wanted to scan
the code that you find beneath /usr/src/linux.
