I hate Oracle.
I needed to install the Oracle ODBC driver for Windows XP on a computer at work. This is a small file, not more than a few megabytes, and is freely available from Oracle's website (which I hate, but anyway...). However, when I tried to use the driver, I discovered that it needs the Oracle Universal Installer. How do you get that? You have to download the full, 600 megabyte Oracle Client.
