Once I had a customer report that her computer was giving her out of disk space errors. This was weird because we script their My Documents and Desktop to network file shares. Like wtf could be using up the disk? While walking to their system I figured the drive was going bad. Nope.

Just a 250+GB log file from a chat program that they used. Like OMG that was amazing

Can you mention which "chat program" was that?
