Same idea: restore a backup to the automatically selected database in the drop down instead of a new database (Thanks Sql Server 2000 entreprise manager!)

Overwrote a client production database that the sysadmin couldn't find any backup for, two hours before I went on a two week vacation.

Fun times.
