That is a lovely bit of logic. 
I suppose it may actually accomplish what the original programmer intended, but even if it does, it is a really ugly way to do it. 
Just because the code works, it doesn't mean that it is good code.

Or maybe VB is such a well designed language that stupid mistakes are really obvious, and thus are more frequently ofund and posted

Some people just never heard of the negation operation, never knew boolean logics. And the most terrifying thing for them is the de Morgan's laws. They're too complicated, you know... And I've seen such stuff several times.

I just found this on a page created from one of my colleagues. The message says:
You cannot upload files with Internet Explorer 7. Please use a newer browser like IE6, IE8 or Firefox.
And not only this. The message appears even when you are using the mentioned Browsers. LOOL

Ooooo you really need to show the code used to display and determine this message.

There are many things in this case that make me laugh and cry at the same time;
a) IE6 is older not newer
b) There should be no problems uploading file with IE7, I have implemented FileUpload Control in many pages and there were never problems with IE7
c) There is no code that handles the browser info. The message is static and is allways visible (Big Red Font) no matter what browser you use.

This one really goes without saying.

I've used the FileUpload control with IE6 and it was never a problem.

OK then, this is where you need to keep a cricket or baseball bat handy (depending on what country you're in) so that you can apply it repeatedly to the head of the individual in question.

What are you talking about! Hitting people over the head with a cricket bat is a proven development methodology here in Australia and India.  Surely they use baseball bats in the states... don't they?

But they're only used for hitting balls. (Below the belt, usually)

 It's always a good idea to be adaptable.

All he wanted to say was IE9 (he kind of got the 9 upside down).
The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realise it doesn't say anything it's too late to stop reading it.
My latest tip/trick

I know how to fix it. Instead of the message:
"You cannot upload files with Internet Explorer 7. Please use a newer browser like IE6, IE8 or Firefox"
Show this one:
"You cannot upload files with your current browser. Try another one."
Hey, you will never be able to upload files, but at least your message is not cheating.

Not a programming question.
I've been sniffing around the Shell namespace new in .NET 4.0, which is part of PresentationFramework assembly.
Well. A so-called "shell" is a part of OS which evolve quite quickly. What if a new feature is added, which will happen sooner or later? Will it be shipped with .NET 5.0 or in a java-like update or in another System.Core2 thing...
Adding wrappers for OS-specific shell features to the framework ain't a good idea -- just my 2 penses. Any thoughts about this?
Greetings - Jacek

Well, it is in the "System.Windows" namespace. I definitely think the annoying OS-specific stuff should be wrapped and be made available in the .Net Framework. That provides a layer to help avoid changes when the underlying OS changes. So in Windows 8 we can use the same .Net functions. If the functions no longer exist on that OS, they can perhaps throw an exception and having a bool that says IsFeatureAvailable would be nice too.

Yeah, OSes are pretty much a shell game.
|
|
|
|
|
|
How else do you legitimately access those features?
