Bad is Bad
Some programs are just bad. They don’t behave well
or they act squirrelly. There is one graphics program that offers
beautiful gradients and fills. However, it has psychic code:
whenever you are almost done with a graphic, it locks up and loses
the file.
Bad programs grab the wrong
code, scribble in another program’s memory space and misbehave in
the network neighborhood.
The Windows NT operating
system, which includes Windows NT, 2000, XP and Vista, protects itself.
When a bad bit of software goes
berserk, Windows is still running in the background unharmed. What
does that look like?
