True, although the original regex had a @ in the quotes so (if this was
intentional) this should be:
Regex(@"@\(");
Obviously the first @ is to tell C# to use a literal string and not to treat
the \ as a C# string escape code.

Bad idea. Character sets are usually slower (more complex) than plain
characters.
Simply use escapes: Regex(@"\(");
That's it.
BTW: That works for all the special charaters like *+.\ and so on.

Regex r = new Regex("@[(]");
