Geeks want to know what went wrong, even when they're not in a position
to fix the problem.

DHL tracking site says:

    Error Number:       -2147221501 0x80040003
    Error Description:  <system>\-2147221501\4\ [TRK_Track:CTrackProxy.TrackShipmentASP]\|
    File:               /i_TrackRslts_Func.asp
    Line Number:        213
    Column Number:      -1

And don't tell me they left out the real error message because that
would frighten newbies :) There is also no point in trying to convince me that
they do know what the real problem is.
