I cleaned up someone's infested work computer, reformatted, reinstalled evrything and didn't rat him out.
Took 6 hrs to restore everything.
"no more porn" i said.
"oh, I learned my lesson!" he said.
2 hrs later it completely infested again, he went right back to the porn fetish sites so I turned him into the boss.
He must have been wanking off right at the sales counter, ugh.
My IT "WTF you thinkin" moments:
2 University administrators: Obviously illegal Porn (Turned In to admin and cops)
6 University Professors: Self Porn with their Grad Assistants, Grade A amateur work. (I gave them a talking to and a stern look, I wasn't going to blow both tenure and grad degrees for other people, if they get outed by someone else not my problem I just let them know they were being epically careless and ethically dubious, but the grad students were well into their 20's and profs were ... well profs.)
A certain admin in the athletics office: Self made, her and approx 1/4 the team.
A secretary: She and the Dean of her college had a nice little collection built of their tirades, a little over 50gb in the 90's I was impressed.
Half a Campus of professors and staff: Copious porn, music and movies.
Out of college:
Two state elected officials, crashed a 2 TB shared network drive with their Netflix Rip project.
1 VP of marketing: more porn.
My direct manager: Furries.
I carried a personal laptop for my own needs, there was nothing but an outlook exchange mailbox file and diagnostic tools on my work computer. It was a crappy Dell, it could barely play a Happy Birthday mp3 without crashing. So it was useless for anything interesting, my pre-Dell buyout 2004 Alienware Area51-M, now that was a media powerhouse up until the desktop grade GTX chip combined with Half-Life 2 melted the board.
Moved to hackintoshing in 2011 after I retired from IT. Purchased my first real Apple computer, M1 Studio, last May. No more Windows or 700w room heaters for me.
