I think he meant to ask a question and mistyped it...

But anyway, "external programs" is too vague. There certainly are programs that have definitely led to bannings, but there are other programs that just passively read the data and present it to the user differently but don't do anything to the information sent to DMM's servers. There isn't really a way to detect those even if DMM wanted to.
