PS - one I hear more and more often is "wreaked" where they really should say "wrought".
There is nothing wrong with "wreaked". "Wrought" is a past tense of the verb "work" in its old-fashioned, transitive sense (as in, "God works miracles").
Presumably, one can work havoc, so there's no real problem with the phrase "wrought havoc", but it is different from "wreak havoc". "Wrought" and "wreak" are completely unrelated.
