I had a client call once: "Your software quit working!"

Me: "Did it work yesterday?"

Client: "Yes"

Me: "Did you do anything on your computer since yesterday?"

Client: "No. Just cleaned out a bunch of useless files."

Me: "What were their names?"

Client: "I don't know!  Just a bunch of .dat and .exe stuff I never use.
You need to come fix this!"

Me: "I'll be right over. Get out your checkbook."

Next time they called, I was "out of the country" :)
