That reminds me of a problem we had with a client that had bought one of our programs (I work in a small software house). She complained that we had sent her some pornographic (only with adults) images to her email, because she opened one email we sent her, opened one image and then moved to the next image in the image viewer she was using (I think it was the default Windows XP image viewer, that allows to view and print images). What happened was that the image she opened from our email was extracted from the email, saved on the temp folder and shown. When she moved to the next she moved to the next image in her temp folder, so it was showing all the images that had been viewed before on her computer.
I don't think she ever understood what happened, but her employees did.
