I wonder what one was the worst.
The one that happend back when I was 13 was quite anoying as, well I was 13. Got junkie virus from 'classmate' (in the days of copying software on floppys...)
Then the bios went totaly fliped out, had to return the computer to suport. And then the motherboard and chip was upgraded from 386 to 486 (so should I be pissed at him or not? Oh we did get revenge anyway so... (don't use bandnames as passwords on bbs:s in the early 90's...)).
But I guess the real worst clean up *I* had todo was either my ex girlfriends familys laptop... 12 year old, runing wildly around the Internet. Gargh...
But worst was the hospital where I was Interning at the libary. You see the hospital had good policies for the computers everywhere else, but the libarie was where everyone blow steem so... about 1400 AdWare things a week, on every computer except one (that was the one runing RedHat).
Then come a wurmattack inside the network somehow and put down all computers (well except again the RedHat computer) or at least most of them at the hospital. This was about a week after mirigrating the datebase server to run remote via Citrix (And that horrible software we have at the place I work now but this isn't the place for talking about idotic systems so) . You become so happy then right.
And after that it was time to change computers, this time with new once without diskdrives. (Which is quite good at most places at a hospital, but not at the libary where all nursestudents wrote and send their essays... I had to go explain how to mount floppy in linux three times a day until we at least got some usb floppy drives). I can't get what qualification the real tech suport people was employed after (I could have done it much better than them. Definite)
