Useless programs

What is the most useless/worst commercial program you know of? After a poor performance in London in 1899, Steinitz went insane and died a year later on August 12, 1900 at Wards Island, N.Y.
worst is definitely Notes most useless... Imaging for Windows? -c
Cheap oil. It's worth it!

Basically I don't like Java But seriously our java team has had a lot of trouble with Tomcat. It crashes once in a while. That's bad for deployed live sites Nish

I find Google's [pdf] note is really helpful -- it tells me to look at the next link in the list without having to look the pdf one over.

I hate them both. They both create overhead, resulting in larger than necessary files. And PDF files never print correctly. Rotten product - Adobe should be ashamed... Powerpoint can be forgiven - it's young yet, and still learning... "What is it?" and he said, "I don't know. Let's kill it." - Ed Gadziemski

I have to admit that it is an elegant solution to the multitasking problem. I've used CP/M, DOS, and a few OSs I had to write myself, and Windows is probably the best solution to an unsolvable problem I've seen. I still hate it, because it is so unreliable. But at the same time, I admire it for its ability to give me true multi-tasking capability that none of its predecesors could offer. Another excellent idea, poorly implemented... The world's full of them... "What is it?" and he said, "I don't know. Let's kill it." - Ed Gadziemski

I've used Jakarta Tomcat (http://jakarta.apache.org/) and found it to be quite stable, unless you misconfigure it, or are dumb enough to get a beta and attempt to use it in a production atmosphere. :-)

The web wasn't designed as virus exchange and pron pic storage device, either. But if some technology goes successful, we have to accept that people use it for what they like and don't care about the clueless whiners who gave it to them.

No, it was trash. It just had a few neat features that made people get really rabid about it (think Amiga fans). -- Eric Move along, nothing to see here.

Hmm, was it any good will vary dependent on whom you ask. :-) I liked it. As for what it was... Hmm.. I'd say it was roughly equivilent to windows 98, back in the time that Microsoft was still stuck on Windows 3.1. Real multitasking, a real GUI, .. :-) Of course, the mileage of the answers people give you will vary. :-) damn, i :-O alot
