Not only does MS steal focus from other applications, but it screws itself as well--or more accurately, it screws its own users. Another apllication that was good but was MS'ed is Anti-Spyware/Defender.

WTF! This is an excellent example of bad programming. Not only does MS steal focus from other applications, but it screws itself as well–or more accurately, it screws its own users.
