Bugs

These are the reasons why I refuse to work with Internet Explorer : 32 unpatched security holes, from which one is a big SSL hole, which is already known for months at Microsoft. That means that if you are using Internet Explorer for your internet banking, your session cannot be guaranteed to be safe ! Think about that, goddammit ! Luckily there are some fine alternatives.

Software bugs concern all of us. I'm a developper, so I create them. You're a software user, so you're a victim of them. Most bugs are at most annoying, but in these cases, proof is given that some of them can be devastating. The most famous one I recall is the failure of one of the NASA Mars probes, that crashed into the red planet, because different units were used by different teams.
