Web Craplets:
People think that they cannot make a
decent web page without a totally useless Java/cgi/ASP script. These craplets range from the everyday hit counter to full-on ASP

These craplets are an integral part of the Windows 95/NT development process. Instead of improving the OS,
Microsoft and 3rd-party developers create utterly useless addons,
shareware apps, and GUI enhancements.
