This is actually one of the reasons I feel "sorry" (for lack of a better term) for Microsoft and think that their negative reputation is not entirely earned. You’d (probably) be surprised by how often you will come across someone who bashes Microsoft for being so insecure and when you look at their system you will see that they’re still running IE 6, haven’t done a security update on their computer since they bought it 5 years ago, their anti-virus software reached end of life years ago and they haven’t received a virus definition update since then, and their system is loaded with crap because every time they come across a accept/reject screen they accept everything without ever reading what it says.


I'd be willing to bet most people that hate Microsoft only do it because they think that's what they're supposed to do.

If you ask 10 people that say they hate Windows, IE, or Microsoft in general why they hate their products, nine of them probably won't give you an actual answer, just vague it sucks or it's broken type of comments.  They won't be able to say why they themselves hate Microsoft.
