Antivirus companies that make you pay for a new subscription every year. So, what, I bought your program, but that wasn't enough for you? Money grubbing Aholes.

You know what else really grinds my gears? You, America. *** You! :p

$100 (fake) internet dollars to anyone who gets the reference. :)

Along with that thought, hardware firewalls that require a yearly subscription to stay current with bug fixes. It's all the rage now. Buy a decent hardware firewall appliance for > $500 and be prepared to likely spend money to keep it up to date :/ Maybe after 5 or 8 years of life, but not starting just 12 months out. Give us SOME product usability insurance! Geeze...

The entire "software as pay as you go service" has been making an unwelcome comback lately (Used to be all that on big iron back in the day).

In the end we WILL end up paying more...

You have to think too, some people like to use torrents to get software.
Using torrents without an AntiVirus is just plan stupid, imo.

Also you have to realise that some people aren't exactly pros at computers. Particularity young teenagers I have noticed (13-15 year olds) download from Limewire willy-nilly and when I open their IE half of the page is filled with toolbars.

Then I have to spend a good amount of time fixing their PC D:
Why anyone would want to install SmileyCentral Toolbar is beyond me.
