The not-exactly-slow puncture necessitating some re-tyreing as above.
The ****er who nicked a memory stick off my assistant's desk at work which he'd left there with a load of WEP keys on it...necessitating a LOT of faffing about changing them all.
DRM, for making me buy TWO MP3 players for the wife (well...I didn't know she'd been buying downloads off Tesco when I got her the first one...).
M&S have been doing that for everQuote:
