I need to do something on my brother's computer...

[AntisociaL]

Install motherboard monitor or set up his bios if it has the option to shut down the pc at a really low temperature.
If he does not leave it running 24/7 put it low enough so it shuts down after just getting warm from a cold boot.

Find a program that allows you to lock all the folders and files to add a password to them. Make him beg for the password and make him say: Now who is the one getting pwned.

put goatse as his wallpaper..... problem solved..

 

[JoeFahey]

So for a VNC, I have to install it on my computer, and on his, right?

I am having trouble finding anything online that helps me learn how to use one.

 

[Handsom3D3vil]

Just do nothing and walk around smiling all the time when he is on the computer. Head games FTW!

 

[IamElectro]

Image his hard drive and then install Mac OS. Then fix it only after he is your slave.

 

[Goosemaster]

better yet, install the MS confuration utitlies that reset everythign everytime you reboot

 

[Powermoloch]

Get rid of the task bar, all the icons and set up a NSFW pr0n pic on the background :thumbsup:

 

[DainBramaged]

Unplug the fans. Laugh at the smoke.

1) Restart his computer in safe-mode with networking.
2) Log in as Administrator (there won't be a password).
3) Download VNC Server from http://tightvnc.com.
4) Install it in a random folder (ie. c:/program files/Adobe/help/)
5) Choose "no" when asked if you want shortcut icons and a start-menu entry.
6) Start VNCServer from the folder you installed it to. Configure it to your needs.
7) Start -> Run: regedit
8) Navigate to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ORL\WinVNC3\
9) Look for the DisableTrayIcon setting. Double click and change the value to 1
10) If it isn't there, create it. Right click -> DWORD. Value of 1.
11) Restart/turn off the computer.
12) ???
13) Profit.

-Encrypt all his files, then delete his username, and recreate it, which will create a new user ID#, thus locking him out of his encrypted files until quantum computers go mainstream.
Note, this may just slightly piss him off, and is not advised.


- Or find CoolWebSearch and put it on the PC. Some variants are damn near impossible to remove.


- Install WinME.

E-mail porn to everyone in his address book.

-Remove the lithium coin battery.


- Create a new administrator account, then change his account to user-level status.

So once I have a VNC on his computer (by doing this), I can install it on my computer, and remotely access his computer from my computer? SAWEEEEEEEEEET!

Wait, so to do all of this, he needs to have XP PRO? Because he only has Home...

 

[Falloutboy]

swap the m and n key on his keyboard. it will piss him off for a long time before he figured it out. or just download netbus and run with that. thats a good idiot prood trojen

 

[spanky]

put his volume (windows and speaker) up all the way and and replace the startup sound with something really annoying that wil scare the shiat outta him. maybe like a scream from some horror movie. or just that annoying sound from dumb and dumber. yeah... i know... there's alot of weak sauce in my post.

Is netbus legal? And where would you recommend getting it?

 

[adairusmc]

neodymium rare earth magnet + his monitor (especially fun if he has a CRT)

Where do I go to adjust system sounds?

 

[pcnerd37]

Give him a pr0n screensaver then set a password to it.

 

[spanky]

start > settings > control panel > sound and audio devices > sounds

i guess this could be different, depending on your system.
