Bill Gates says the US tax office has to store his financial data on a special computer.
"My tax return in the United States has to be kept on a special computer because their normal computers can't deal with the numbers," he told a Microsoft conference in Lisbon.
"So I am constantly getting these notices telling me I haven't paid something when really it is just on the wrong computer.
"Then they will send me another notice telling me how bad they feel they that they sent me a notice that was a mistake."
Gates is the world's richest man with an estimated fortune of £26.5 billion, according to the latest Forbes list.
