When I took a web development course we did things like that all the time. Sneak on the other guy's pc and set his homepage for something perverted...swap our keyboard cords so when they came back and typed in a password it showed on our screen...sign each other's emails up for weird shit...:lol:

I think my favorite prank back in the day was to do a screen cap of the desktop and then move all the icons off the screen. Replace current desktop with previous screen cap and watch the frustration.

Removing the mouse ball, or tape it so it won't roll.

Reverse mouse buttons.

Go into the video card settings and rotate the screen 180 degrees.

I could go on and on...

I forgot that. We used to change the click speed and the speed for the keyboard. Then listen to clickclickclickclick while the victim couldn't understand why nothing worked...and why suddenly everything opened :lol:

I recall that one of the Government workers did that while I was a contractor at Ft Huachuca. He set another GS worker's computer to a hard-core erotic website as the home page while the guy who owned it was on travel.

When the guy who owned it returned to the office he booted his machine and was stunned to see the porn that was now his home screen. He immediately turned off the PC and rebooted it with the same results. He then spent almost half a day figuring out what had been done and how to get rid of it. . . and then spent the rest of the day trying to figure out how to shift to the porn site by using only one button.

Unfortunately, he wasn't the most computer literate individual and did not know/understand that the local IT group was monitoring all network traffic. When they captured the IP of the site he was visiting he and the Director had a long conversation about what he could and could not see and about proper use of his time. :rofl:

Several years ago, we had an Apple guy that wanted to use our department's pc for Excel. This guy always bragged about how Apple kicks ass over Microsoft, but the SOB wanted to use our PC for Excel. So I found a simple program that runs in the background that would drop numbers in a pile at the bottom of the screen.

My supervisor and I watched from a window while he was accessing his spreadsheet. Scratching his head, then finally cussing up a storm. I then walk in to hear him bitch and complain about our PC - noting that most all his numbers are laying on the bottom of the screen. He then turned his head and I hit the hot key and the numbers returned. So I told him that I don't see anything wrong with our PC. He grabbed his stuff, and he never used our PC again.
