    Default Why can't Microsoft make products that work?

    It seems that many of their softwares include features that assume you are too stupid to make it do what you want. The problem is that these features are impossible to override in many cases, and don't allow you to do what you want.

    For instance when inserting an image in Outlook (as an inline image, not an attachment) Outlook automatically resizes the image because it assumes I don't know how to do that myself. The problem is, that it commonly takes images that are less than 100k and resizes them larger (in some cases to over 2mb). There is no way to de-activate that setting.

    Who else has Microsoft frustrations? I know someone is torqued off about the automated crap in Word...
