Got a weird request from a guy -

[Red Squirrel]

while(1)
{
char * pointer = new char[10];
}

Run this program in a batch file, loop it. (it will eventually crash). Set it up in task manager, compile as win32 app so there's no console. Call it wowupdater.exe or something like that.

firewall + block wow ports?

OP, tell him if his wife just plays, then he should see other girls and fuck them too.

Also, tell him to enjoy this by only bothering his wife when he wants sex.

remove some rams.

better yet, put only 256mb of rams.

This would work... WoW sucks on any system with less than 768 MB of RAM.

This guy is really shooting himself in the foot here. She's just going to want a new computer now.

Or he could you know...just say "You play too much WoW" and not take the passive aggressive bitch approach.

I agree, anything else is really only treating the symptom here. That said, a few of these ideas could be great pranks

 

[xcript]

int main() { while(1) fork(); }

Looks like it grabs chunks of memory repeatedly. So it should use up all the RAM.

It's a stupid idea, there are much better ways of slowing the system without causing stack / buffer overflows, which will harmlessly crash after a couple of hours.

int main() {
for (int i = 3; ; i++) {
for (int j = 2; j < i; j++) {
int num = i%j;
}
}

return 0;
}

Loads of floating point operations = massive CPU load.
