Programs you hate?


Question

Here is a list of Programs tha tI hate, you can post your list too ;)

1. Real Player:

I hate this program and the .rm format because it is slow and buggy, MP3, WMA, and OGG media is smaller and sounds better. You cant get free encoders for it, and they dont let other programs open .rm files :(

2. AOL (And the AOL ISP Service):

I hate this program and service because it is slow, unreliable, has more sercurity holes then I have money, and its features suck compared to other free products :(

3. Window Blinds:

For me this program lets me use really slow skins that suck up valubal resources on my computer, and every time I tried a skin, it looked 10x better in the screenshot demos then it really did on my system. I also dont like the false advertizing and other non factual info they give you about the program to get you to buy it :(

4. Invision Power Board:

I like the software a lot, but I *HATE* the defualt skin, and almost every site I see these days use it because the owners are to lazy to change it :(

SAP,

anything mainframe related,

our help desk software (a heavily modified journal in Outlook 98),

Event Viewer, to look up locked accounts (it may take minutes to find info when everyone in the company is logging in at the same time)

Exceed (Unix product)

Norton Antivirus,

Windows XP networking

Thanks for pointing that out. I didn't know that.

    • Yup, broke my comp… again. its times like this when I regret AMD. This just never happens on NV.
    • Huh? You're delusional calling the Steam Deck dead. It is so successful that it has sold out multiple times. Even after the price hike this year it sold out again with 24 hours of being back in stock. The demand is real and has not died down even after four years.
    • Same place "Unreal III" is, in everyone's thoughts!
    • So how much water is used in that "initial charge" and how often will it need to be recharged?
