haha, if u want to trick someone, you could tell them, "Hey, I bet you I can win this game in 1 minute!" Then distract them for a second, hit the keys, and BAM!

it sounds lame, but I bet you someone will try it this wknd 🙂
 
Works through remote (gencontrol - VNC too!) funny looks from folks seeing solitaire open and cards falling. Click on screen and when it says "Deal again?" click no then repeat. Haha cards falling out of nowhere. 🙂
 
I miss the infinite speed falling cards....it was like a crappy CPU benchmark back in the day.

Use sol.exe from NT4.0 fixes this issue. Just remember to browse to %SYSROOT%\System32\Dllcache\sol.exe and REMOVE that file from that folder. When you copy the older sol.exe to %SYSROOT$\System32\ folder and overwrite you will get a nastygram from Windows File Protection Sentinal. Click CANCEL to this message to keep old version and all is well. Of course on any modern puter the cards explode like confetti but it looks hilarious.
