    My personal favorite was a very nice professional lady who is respected in her community and nice looking to boot.

    She asked me specifically to back up ALL of her pictures, well part of the backing up process is to verify and check the backup.

    There were dozens of pictures that were, well "unrated" and "off the chain" of herself.

    It was really weird when I returned her tower after the fact

    Once she realized that I had seen her darkest secrets, she was too embarrassed to ever call again...

    For $5 I'll let you see them

    ive ran into that one before, from now on i ask whats on the PC before i go and back anything up and if they have anything they dont want me to see (pics, passwords in text documents etc etc) i tell them to burn them to a CD or put them on a flash drive first

    That only works if the tower still functions at the time.

    I pick up machines with dead power supplies and mainboards also.

    Her case was a boot virus that kept windows from loading at all.
