As far as I know, Microsoft did not give any explanation for the origin of these bugs.

———— ——— ——— ——— ——— ———

BUG #1
An Indian discovered that nobody can create a FOLDER anywhere on the computer which can be named as “CON”. This is something pretty cool…and unbelievable. .. At Microsoft the whole Team, couldn’t answer why this happened!

TRY IT NOW ,IT WILL NOT CREATE “CON” FOLDER

———— ——— ——— ——— ——— ———

BUG #2
For those of you using Windows, do the following:

  • Open an empty notepad file
  • Type “Bush hid the facts” (without the quotes)
  • Save it as whatever you want.
  • Close it, and re-open it.

is it just a really weird bug? Confused?
