In virtually every application I use, including Lotus Notes, Control-F brings up the Find dialogue. This seems to be the default behaviour for Windows applications. There is an exception though – Microsoft Outlook. In Outlook 2007, Control-F is the keyboard shortcut to forward a message. So, Microsoft has broken their own UI standard. Why? They didn’t need to, they already have a keyboard shortcut for forwarding – Alt-W.
Unfortunately, it appears that the User Interface Hall of Shame isn’t being maintained any more. Otherwise this would rate a mention.
It’s just not good enough!
Just another example — Microsoft had abandoned common sense for management by committee.

I wonder how you cold not comment anything on Lotus Notes, and you find small glitches on Outlook !
The interface hall of shame has a session only for it.
