Re: Most irritable Softwares
Gimp : Irritable just coz of the interface(i m used to PS) but at the same time it is helpful too.
ZA, PC Cillin, QuickHeal, Real Player, QuickTime are the others..

Re: Most irritable Softwares
I can see people find softwares irritating when they can't configure them properly. MS office is the best Office software one can use...!
And please post genuinely irritable softwares. Windows is not the one atleast for me!

Re: Most irritable Softwares
guys how come ZoneAlarm is irritable???
atleast it does its WORK PERFECTLY, that is blocking unneccessary incoming/outgoing traffic.
just coz its resource hog doesnt mean its irritating s/w, if your system cant handle it, dont install it.
ZA crashes or malfunctions if your system does not meet the requirements ->XP SP2. or due to some in-compatible AV s/w...
when you say Norton, i'll agree  , coz its a paid product but still faaaaar behind the free AV solutions. (Detecting virus/trojans).
how many of you here use LimeWire?

Re: Most irritable Softwares
to all LimeWire users,
hmm, so you never felt that LimeWire slows the system down , well it slows my PC, when i restore it (frm minimized state), it takes nearly 30 seconds for it to become functional, & in the process takes 90+% CPU & stops all other activities (WinAmp, Opera...) till it loads.
i've 256MB RAM pc, ZA remains OFF, when using LimeWire.
do get something (songs,...), we gotta tolerate something (pc slow down)

Re: Most irritable Softwares
One of the software which I hate is "Download Accelerator Plus". Initial Free version came bundled with spywares. It is really sucking as a download manager. More over, it's takes a nice 5+ seconds to initiate a download!
