Making someone extremely angry or frustrated; causing rage.
From the prefix 'in-' (into) combined with 'fury' (from Latin 'furia' meaning 'violent passion'). Evolved to mean 'throwing into fury' or 'making furious'.
Psychologists note that 'infuriating' things often feel infuriating because they seem pointless or unfair—it's not just anger, it's anger at something that shouldn't have happened in a rational world.
