Default Funny IT error

As many of you know I am IT.
Today we upgrade one of our programs. I am not making this up. This is an actual error.

When you get an error message it usually takes a little digging to get to the problem.
Not this time, the problem is clear. Look at the the blue area, that is the name of the executable that is having problems.

the name of the executable that doesn't work is Mesuax.exe
Could be Me sux or ME sux a**
The people who created it named it that way so what does that tell you.

mesuax.exe is not a Microsoft module:

http://www.file.net/process/mesuax.exe.html

I know it will gall you, but thank Bill Gates. mesuax.exe
threw an invalid code, and Windows told you as much
as it knew. Beats the heck out of blue screening or
answering "Say WHAT?" (I've seen that one).

I know what it is I'm not blaming windows I don't need help ETC.. I think you are reading too much into this. We have 2 programs from 3rd party vendors that don't like one-another we have already fixed the problem. I'm just laughing at the name of the exe file. I guess you have to be a Geek to get the joke.
