Nothing quite that bad, though when I was helping set up spyware protection on the computers at a friend's game store where they had a pay-to-play LAN, I found out that one machine had been set-up as a covert server for a filesharing program. Can't remember the program specifically, it's one of the filesharing programs that has since fallen by the wayside.

Sounds like a world record to me.

2 and a half gigs of spyware, trojans and viruses!!!! Was this computer even functional? Did the OS take 6 minutes to load? Did right-clicking the desktop and hitting refresh cause it to hang? WTF!
