Wow.  That's a little scary.  I don't think I'd try that with my 
mother-in-law.  The only thing I've had to fix so far is that somehow she 
moved/maximized her kmail window in such a way that she couldn't grab the 
handles or toolbar buttons to get it back to normal.  I'm pretty sure you 
can do that in windows too!
