I told you NO already.<br /><br />My favorite bad feature? The one that (1) won't actually launch Task Manager because some runaway program, dumprep.exe I'm looking at you, is eating all the machine cycles and (2) won't let Task Manager kill a program that is Not Responding because it's too busy not responding. Yeah, dumprep.exe, I'm looking at how you spawn yourself off everytime I try to kill a job.

Its refusal (sometimes) to let me delete an empty folder, even after 7 "are you sure" and "you need administrator permissions" prompts. Its decision (sometimes) to display a 75 mile long list of 14 inch high icons instead of a simple list of documents - seriously, does ANYBODY use the "colossal icon" setting besides microsoft?
