This is a question Clients Are Stupid

I once had to train a client on how to use their new website. I said, "point the mouse at that button." They looked at me with a quizzical expression, picked up the mouse and held it to the screen. Can you beat this bit of client stupidity?

This is a QotW answer Hunk of the Day
This wasn't strictly the client's fault, but it's my favourite incident working as an IT bod.

This manager in the Civil Service had just inherited a workstation from a secretary. He phoned the desk, absolutely livid, saying that he couldn't get rid of the wallpaper.

"OK, chill out for Christ's sake" I thought.

What had actually happened was that every day, he would get a pin-up hunk of the day as his wallpaper. He could get rid of it, but as soon as he logged on the next morning, he would get a brand new picture of a topless fireman holding a kitten or something similar.
