Happened to me once to. My ex GF snooped in my email and found I was emailing another girl I work with and she was sending me pics. So my ex being all clever tried to net send the girl and accidentally got the whole domain about 600 computers ?you are 1 ugly b1tch?. Well it ended up going to only about half the computers since the others where turned off. But after a couple days of embarrassment people eventually forgot. Good luck.

There was somebody in our office who sent a net send by mistake to all 12000 people in the north american domain.
Kind of bad when it happens. Just ride it out.

We had to disable messenger because of retards with UPS devices.

"MESSAGE FROM SPANKYSPC: The UPS has reached 15% and will begin powerdown in 2 minutes"

"MESSAGE FROM SPANKYSPC: The UPS has begun powerdown"

"MESSAGE FROM SPANKSPYC: UPS Power has returned to operational"

"Who the hell is spanky and why did he name his PC that"

We used to send people HR messages like "This is HR. Please stop browsing those websites, we know it is you". Throw some numbers and a name in, make it look official and you could scare the crap outa someone.

One guy at my workplace mistakenly sent an email containing a video attachment of a young woman giving some kind of pleasure to her BF in Yankee stadium during a game a few years ago to the entire company.

Needless to say, the women executives did not respond favorably. He's still here, but was severely reprimanded. It could have cost him his job. He got lucky, and not in a "good" lucky way.

Send out another net send telling your IT guys they need to update your workstations. I can't believe they have 600 systems (if they're XP) without SP2.
