Actually there is a slight contradiction with the name of the blog, because today's event made me think deeply and for a long time. Smart would not hesitate.
There is such a SKB Kontur office, which writes various programs, and part of these programs for reporting is distributed to poor accountants for free.
And so, the accountant unzips rar, finds the “setup” file, launches it and sees a message that all anti-virus programs should be disabled for the duration of the installation. Well, this is not very strange. Disables, installs. Makes a report. And suddenly the program refuses to save the report to a floppy disk. The accountant calls the techsport, and there they answer: "probably you did not turn off the antivirus during the installation, therefore it does not save".
Naturally, after that the accountant calls a familiar programmer ...

Google did not help. I found a couple of mentions that there are some frauds with these programs, but some of them are not deciphered. I found only one more similar answer from Kontur to the question about their online service, which says that if you cannot print the document (the print stops at 7 percent), disable all antiviruses and reinstall something there ...
The questions from the accountant are quite everyday:
- what to do;
- and not whether the virus is stuck in their program?
But other questions make me think about the meaning of life:
- why I have never managed to write such code that could not save something on a diskette or print it, if during installation an antivirus made a splash somewhere?
- why, if it is so important, the installer did not quarrel at the end of the installation?
- What know-how does SKB Kontur use in this business?
- what is the use of it?
- what technical problems could make them do it?
- how many invisible accountants from the Internet suffer from it is unclear with what, while we are building Web 2.0 here?
If someone read this far, thanks for the sympathy, do not hurt much ...
Update: everyone tried, got to the developers, they said that even buying a paid version with an invitation to their programmer at home is unlikely to help. The accountant had to go to the office and work on someone else's computer, where XP stands. Not without glitches, but it worked.
