	This problem is exacerbated by the fact that Crystal Reports is used by a wide variety of applications which are all generally counting on a specific version of Crystal (which just happens to be slightly different from everyone else). Each of these applications generally installs it's preferred version of Crystal, which will as often as not fuck up Crystal on that computer for the other applications that use it.

	Different versions of Crystal (both the run-time DLLs and the report editor) are plagued with a wide variety of bugs and quirks. If there is any difference between what some aspect of Crystal (built into ITrack, or just within the various run-time DLLs), it will give useless errors and fail.
