Stupidity: When Angela goes back to her house and finds that it's being sold, why are the cops letting her busybody neighbor hang around, ask her questions, and give opinions about her answers? If this were to happen for real, I think they'd ask the neighbor if she could identify her and then send her home.
The Net (1995)

Directed by: Irwin Winkler
Starring: Sandra Bullock, Jeremy Northam, Diane Baker, Dennis Miller
Factual error: Angela Bennett finds the Praetorian's IP while using the PC in the Cathedral's bank: it's 23.75.345.200 - they want us to believe that this is an IP, but no IP can contain numbers greater than 255. [Common practice, like fake phone numbers, but still worth noticing].
Dr. Alan Champion: Will you be handling the outpatient care, nurse?
Angela: Well, do you mind?
Dr. Alan Champion: Visions of sponge baths dance in my head.
Trivia: While walking the beach, Devlin wraps his handkerchief around Angela's waist. Cary Grant did the same thing in the film "Notorious", where he played a character named Devlin.
