So what have you found while fixing peoples computers?

If i was handing my comp over to a computer shop i'd just make a raft load of jpg's, rename them with incriminating names, put them in an obvious folder like C:\Misc\pr0n\ or something, and just have in big black and white letters "I'M NOT PAYING YOU TO LOOK FOR PORN ON MY PC" in the image or something.

.........and if i was quite sick i would......

Then have the PC auto dial 999 and call for SWAT back up whilst the machine tasers the unknowing tech guy, so when the ambulance and SWAT team arrives he is sat there in a pool of his own piddle and foaming at the mouth. That'll teach him for going through my stuff.
 
An amusing situation happened between my friends...

I was borrowing an apple mac from a friend (Friend A) whilst my PC was bust, and Friend B's laptop happened to fail. As such, he transferred all of his documents to the apple mac in my possesion. I was browsing through Friend B's photos and low and behold... naked pictures of his girlfriend (one of my friends), eeek! I closed the folder and didn't mention if to either of my friends....

A year or so later, whilst all out drunk and talking about porn...

Nitefly: Ah, I know what sort of porn you like friend B, girlfriend porn ;)
Friend B: ...?!
Nitefly: Well you know you transferred all of your files to the apple....
Friend B: .... Oh crap, you git!
Nitefly: Bwahahahah!
Friend A: Hold on Nitefly, the jokes also on you!
Nitefly: Eh?
Friend A: Remember it was your computer that broke in the first place....
Nitefly: Yep
Friend A: So you transferred all of YOUR files to the apple, my apple, as well ;)
Nitefly: ..... oh you git
Friend A: Yep, sometimes I masterbate to naked pictures of both your girlfriends, its very pleasing.


Owned :o

I lol'd.
 
Are you American?

Actually no, i'm Danish but blame TV for my American expressions, sorry if it offends you;).
Anyway, back on track, I also found a friends stash of self-recorded gay porn when using his PC once, was kind of...weird, now I understands why he always buys me pints at the pub!:p
 
Was fixing next door neighbours computer as it wasnt connecting to the internet, and wouldnt pick up anything via USB. Logged on, and there was a folder on the Desktop with a pretty obvious name, and then when opening Windows Explorer, it loaded up My Documents, some intersting pictures there too. Two sisters, ones 20-22, the other just a bit older.
 
Speaking of odd things in the case itself. Never ever fix the PC of someone who chain smokes while using it. The damn thing had yellow fur growing over everything, no wonder it was overheating.
 
A DEAD ROTTING MOUSE

Some guy at work complained his room smelled, we pinned down the smell from his pc.. turns out he had sealed some poor rodent in his pc case when installing a removable disk enclosure.. poor thing must have slowly died of starvation, fear and heat. (it was a prescott p4 lol)

Nightmare - especially my Dads PC.
I have to take it outside, hoover it, scrub it and spray it etc.
He had one of his guitars setup and the guy who did it said he spent over 2 hours getting all the nicotine off that :(
 
On one of my previous jobs, a boss of mine asked me to look at his PC for him, had pictures of him and his mrs in various states of undress. Meh.

The worst one (or maybe best :D ) was some guy who was trying to sell me a phone in Carphone Warehouse, he had the latest top model but didn't have a demo, so he showed me his personal phone, had a big picture of his girlfriends breasts on the front :D yummy
