I have more stories than I can begin to remember, but they include gems like (from a tenured U.C. professor) "I think my hard drive just crashed with my nearly-complete latest book. I didn't have a backup copy. Any chance you can recover it?".
I also had an IT professional at a customer site once take a "web server install" CD around to EVERY client PC at his site and run the installation script...locally onto each machine's C: drive! After a few days he called and reported they were unable to access the new web site...
Damn, I hate computers sometimes, and customers/users even more! Since they pay the bills I just suck it up and try not to giggle too much.
