Stupid Programs

Post some programs up here that fail.

How about a program that installs an installer that installs an installer that installs an installer...

When it's actually the same program installing the same installer over and over after the first one.

I am not responsible for any damages accrued, but I assure you that there are no malware, trojans or viruses in the zip file below. I am also not responsible for any insanity you may experience while using this program. This program may not be redistributed without my consent. Not that it really matters.

Wouldn't that be a virus? A program which just copies itself, eating the computer's resources while not doing anything useful.

No, because it overwrites itself. And you have to make it do it again, with the EXIT option always visible.

I actually wanted to link to this in some topic for useful software, but I couldn't find the topic, so kol.

This is actually a nice program for storing account information, with nice security options:

i've been looking for diagramming things and that looks nice. everthing else i've found needs money or something

I used to use the free/trial version of gliffy for making flowcharts for a programming class, and later flowcharts for industrial processes. That might be a useful program (it's online so you can cooperate with other people), but the free thing I linked to may have the same features, I haven't checked that one yet.

Nice. I plan to use this to improve the NS GDP calculation sometime to take into account more trackable factors.
