add that address in as a route back to itself. so that when they try to surf to that site, they'll hit the copy you made on that computer.... (require you to have some knowledge in setting a computer up as a web host..etc)

---example

my co-worker loves to surf mustang forums. so I copied the main page that site and defaced it with a fake hacking group called "jap-hack" and changed all the links to gay porno sex sites (i guess the site name by being creative).

so when my co-worker tried to go to that site, he's actually surfing to another computer in our room with that site. he then went to all the other mustang forum sites to post about how his first favorite site was hacked.

hilarity ensue, as others on those forums could still access the original site. he didn't find out until someone ask him to post the ip address of the site when he pings it.

HAHAHAHAHA. thats great

Looks like somebody doesn't know how to have fun :p


jimbob200521, you could try changing the M an N keys and wait for the next nailing list. Also you could switch the 789 and 123 rows in the number pad. Or add some intersting autocorrect entires in Word.

LOL!

change "the" to "teh"

... on second thought that would get old very quickly... maybe use a less common 'werd'.

Plug keyboards and mice into different pcs so what you type goes on someone else's pc and vice versa.

TYpe, exactly what is in the quotes "net send /domain [your message here]" and for your message here, put in your message. really, its not that hard...

Isnt there a program that simulates your computer's hard drive being erased? Once you start it, you cannot get out of it until it runs its course. I think it actually shows the contents of your drive being deleted. Anyone??


Peace

1) Take some pictures of some 'handsome' friends. Name them something like pretty_boy_10452.jpg and stick them on the desktop.

Stay close by and wait for the: 'OMG, which perv has been downloading dodgy pics. I'm going to delete it now......AHAHAHA ROLF, LOL"

2) There's an old bug in Win2k (still unfixed), which allows text files to contain javascript which will spontaneously run when the folder containing them is browsed. Making a webpage which screams 'I am an idiot, ahahahah' come up every time they open the My Documents folder is quite amusing.

Hmm. Perhaps I should keep quiet about that. And no, you can't have my proof-of-concept script.

Probably won't work in a school setting, but I have to tell you about a prank I pulled on my neighbot a few weeks ago. College dorm, and this girl is 1) prone to freaking out and 2) knows nothing about computers 3) leaves her door unlocked. A few months ago, I came across "gollumgetsablowjob.mp3" on collegehumor and decided to save it for later fun. You can imagine what it sounds like, or maybe I'll even post it if anyone can host. Anyway, I just converted it to WAV, snuck into her room when it wasn't there, and set it as the system sound for "minimize window." It worked PERFECTLY. When I got back that night she was running around the dorm telling everyone that Gollum was on her computer and making "strange noises," but everyone, including her brother from home who she called, just laughed at her. What made it even better was she didn't realize the exact mechanism, so she couldn't reproduce the sound when people asked.

as the title says, im looking for some good pc pranks to play on my fellow classmates. the teacher here has made me an administrator on the network, so i dont want to abuse my access too much, and i dont want to delete anything that matters to them. about the only thing i have done so far is to create a couple hundred new folders on their desktop, and that is getting kinda old. so anything that anybody suggets shouldnt be damaging. thanks


seems kind of a childish thing for an administrator to do.

my thoughts exactly

I wonder if anyone has written a program to reverse the mouse axis... that could be fun. Set it up so if you hit a couple keys it will go back to normal for a few seconds
"Huh... it seems to work fine for me" :p
