What Annoys you Most About Microsoft Windows?

    This is more a gripe thing, what is the single thing that annoys you most (I would say p*sses you off) about Windows, either XP or Vista?

    What annoys me the most about windows is everyone who talks crap about the OS and then continues to use it =). I really can't complain about windows it's been good to me for a long time now. Sure there may be bugs and stuff like that but I think they try their hardest to fix everything asap.

    I guess. I ditched Windows quite a while ago, on this PC anyway. I have vista on another machine, and it seems to run smoothly enough, apart from little bugs.
    I've got no problem with either OS, but SO many people complain about it now'a'days :p

    Yeah everyone is hopping on the anti-m$ band wagon. The only thing I don't like about linux is a majority of vendors only create stuff for windows. I know there are emulators and such but I would just like the program to work lol. Although a lot of companies are starting to make programs for linux now.

    Indeed.
    Emulators are nothing like the real thing, although Ubuntu comes with alternatives for most stuff, it just isn't quite as easy to use as the Windows counterpart :p
    Adobe need to support Linux ;)

    If you're talking about acrobat reader, it annoys windows users to no end, are you saying you want it?

    As for what annoys me?

    Nothing, nada, zip and zilch It works just fine, I guess after 7 months of constant use (and i mean constant) without antivirus it craps out suddenly with no warning. But xp + opera web browser = WIN!

    You know that windows xp black is loaded with viruses on the install? It's been proven time and time again. Maybe that's why nothing works for you ;).

    This kind of reminds me of the Windows OS's in the last few years.
