I pranked the receptionist with this yesterday. Unfortunately, I've done so many cruel things to her that now she just yells my name whenever anything goes wrong. But maybe someone else can get some use out of this as a prank.

Fake Progress Bar

I set it up, with some custom text RE data being deleted, system files becoming corrupted etc. Then set it up to run when she tried to open her email program.

Give it a shot and let us know how it goes! :-D

oooh nasty!
Back in the days of windows running on DOS, I freaked a few collegues out by opening a DOS box and expanding it to full screen +. Then at the dos prompt just type "FATAL HARD DISK ERROR!" and leave it like that. It is great looking at the expressions on their face. Only takes seconds to setup.
