Actually, there are C++ programmers that put 'C' in front of *every* 
class name. And it's not to compensate for the lack of namespaces in 
some stone-age compilers, it's just to say "this is a class".

I guess that it's Microsoft's MFC framework/library that promoted it 
most widely with its broken variant of what was initially a "Hungarian 
Notation". For your amusement:
