a BIG oops!!!

I was messing around with VB, still a newbie trying to learn...and I created a timer that would execute notepad.exe every millisec. Guess what happened when I ran it? LOL

Here's the program if anyone wants to see what happens or just wants to bother someone:
notepad-o-rama
Right click the link, save target as... Otherwise, it doesn't work.

Your links not working

I got an error trying to execute the file...it wasn't able to locate "mscoree.dll"

also, is there any way of stopping this once you execute it besides restarting?

I did try running task manager to stop the program..but it didn't work. i HAD to reboot.

hehe...i once made a VB program that kept on writing to a txt file. I ended up with a 2GB textfile..it only stopped cause I ran out of space. That was an accidental program too..I was trying to write to a file using a loop..it turned to be an infinite loop.
