Halloween is fast approaching, and I thought it would be fun to come up with a list of tricks you can play on someone using their computer.

Replace their normal wallpaper with an image of a BSOD, and remove all their icons
Change their HOSTS file to make every Google page redirect to a Rick Rolled
Install the Office Poltergeist on their machine
Tell them sadly that they will have to downgrade to Windows ME
Link them to a screamer on YouTube… such as MINE

Have a wonderful… and SAFE… Halloween.

There’s a mac program (forget the name, sorry) that simulates a Windows virus. Obviously it does no harm but it’d be pretty funny to see the look on the persons face of their Mac getting a virus.
