Computer Pranks

[Smartiepants]

We have been having some fun in the office today, so what are some good computer pranks, we have already done the take a screenshot of the desktop, put it as the background and remove all the icons, set the screensaver on and lock to 1 second, and then rearrange the keys on the keyboard.

Any other good ones left?

Re: Computer Pranks

How about hacking your co-workers favourite websites to say 'hacked by some arab guy'?

Re: Computer Pranks

This is fun for me...
I have admin access over 3 stores networks...
1). I send out remote shutdowns to people with a 4000 second countdown...
They usually end up calling me right away saying something about haxors on their computer and I will abort the count...

2). Send netsend messages to cashiers saying that their terminals will shut down in 30 seconds for maintenance when they have a HUGE lineup... (which doesnt actually turn them off).

3). I will log in and take remote control over someones machine and get a call from them regarding their floating mouse cursor and opening programs.

4). We have a few corporate people who can not type unless they are looking at the keys on the keyboard... I switch the keys around or tape down their escape button so their computer wont boot...

5). The masking tape works wonders on the bottom of a optical mouse...

6). Blocked our own website from being reached internally through the Sonic Wall with a pornography classification.

7). Knocked peoples database access levels from lvl 10 (Manager) to lvl -1 (Terminated).

8). Set login times for accounts from 9:05am to 9:15am then an automatic kick after 9:15

I gotta make some dinner but I will post more in a bit...

9). Change people's names on their phones so that when they call internal numbers it says "Butthead or ______" instead of "TIMMY".

10). Plug the receiver of the phone into the headset port which gets the person sound of what is on the other side of the line but does not get them heard by the other party.

11). Setting incredibly low times for innactivity screensavers/system locks to turn on
