Ahm... I think you missed out on the irony in that statement... it is
IMPOSSIBLE to write an algorithm that decides if a given piece of code will
halt eventually (i think Turing proved that).

I think you still don't understand the problem with the execution of
untrusted code (is it so unobvious?).
