Best error message

Best error message: I used to answer the tech support phones for many years, and just thinking of trying to handle a call on a string like this makes me feel very uneasy: "Error Message: Your Password Must Be at Least 18770 Characters and Cannot Repeat Any of Your Previous 30689 Passwords." I mean, where could you start with something like this...!? [via Victor Mitnick on the Dreamweaver team, who doesn't seem to have much of a Google footprint, but who I bet could write a fun weblog.... ;-) ] (btw, I just got over a temporary connectivity disruption, and am behind on my reading, but this item in internal email was too much fun to not share.)
