btw...this function is really fun if someone leaves their computer unattended.

do a print screen of just their desktop, paste it into some paint program and mirror image it so that everything is backwards. Save it and set it up as their background.

For even more fun and frustration for them, you can also right click the desktop and hide the "real" icons then move their task bar to a different location so they can't find it...did this to my daughters friend when he left his laptop at our house lol he paniced not knowing what I did or how to fix it.

we now return you to your original thread
