    Most buggy software you've ever come across with

    It's time to name the software you've found most buggy in your life. After using which you thought you were on the wrong road.

    For me, It is <<removed>> hosting control panel, It used to have hundreds of bugs even in the interface. Just for your information, company has released seven bug fixes after the so-called version 1.0 stable. It's even more pitty that they are continuously introducing newer bugs while removing (replacing) the older ones.

    So what's your worst experiece.

    Microsoft Windows ME no doubt about it hehe..I installed it ONCE, and uninstalled it 2 hours later..have seen people struggle with the OS up through the years, and I can say it's by far the worst I've ever seen/used.

    I have Windows ME and it gives very little problem.But ofcourse I have to reinstall the os frequently which is lot easier than trouble shooting and fixing problems on Win ME

    If it gives little problems why you have to install it frequently?

    In the Linux zone, the worst I've found so far has been Kate - So many bugs I just use Kedit and Gedit in the end.

    In Windows, well, to be honest, the only time I've experienced problems was with Norton Internet Security 2002.

    Actually, to be totally honest, I've never had a problem with Microsoft Windows 98SE except for Norton Internet Security.

    The thing is, you need to firstly know what you're doing, secondly have a good anti-virus program and also have a good firewall. Also, don't go to websites which are at a high risk.

    98 used to run great, with the software that was on the market back then Today I think you'd have a lot more problems if you were to use Win98 on a machine combined with some of the newest software on the market.

    And Linux isn't? You should try reading the Linux kernel change logs some time to see just how many bug fixes there are in there.
