I saw a worse one, well it's a demo for a game so it doesn't really count, on exit it asks if you want to visit their web page with a lengthy message, instinctibly you hit "Yes", just to see IE and the dialer popup, how's that for annoyances.

>>Really, are exit confirmations out?, I personnally hate it, I hadn't implemented it, but since I kept on seeing it I thought I should put in my apps, so I did. Maybe I can make it optional too...wait I'm going to end up with an options dialog more bloated than ICQ's :).

>It's way, way out, now :) The last app I recall seing with the "Are you sure?" message on quitting (after saving and all other business has been completed) was a DOS app about 5 years ago. It always struck me as the most redundant message in the PC-app world :)

>I will say that the message made sense back in mainframe days when logging on was a big ordeal, but now these are all apps you can start right up again if you mistakenly Exit...
