I do it all the time, which is why on my test server I set the timeout in IIS to under 10 seconds.

Saves waiting ages for IIS to timeout for so long before you can get on with correcting your code.

I can beat that:

I made an infinite mail loop tha resulted in that TDC (biggist danish Internet provider) close the mail service for the my webhost - result 22.000 web-hotel was not able to send email, for nearly 2 days, and my hotmail acount got closed  my luck was sending to myself and not a client.
It was funny to se messenger popup with thoose you got mail 10 time a second

I forgot the move next once in a job interview test.

Fortunately I still got the job, but it was rather embarrassing.
