Your computer can begin to smell like something is burning and than you open it and you see your computer burning

if you're running Windoze I wouldn't shut it off... you know, never touch a running system... next time it might not boot up again!

Funny you should mention it. I just had a computer get fried from all the storms here in FL last week. It was plugged into a UPS which protects it from that stuff. It turns out, the thing got fried through the phone line. The damn modem hasn't been used since I don't know when, but I never disconnected it. Oh, well....
