This is where you can discuss your homework, family, just about anything, make strange sounds and otherwise discuss things which are really not related to the Lancer-series. Yes that means you can discuss other games.

Classics Grom .

Taw - I hate those damn boot-sector viruses, especially when they end up deleting the boot-sector. Luckily I have never had one .

I saw a virus that my dad had on a computer (from intel) it had a virus that made the screen shake, and little bits of his background were falling down to the bottom.(Extra funny because he has a background with stars and nebuli ect in it ) LOL

Death to the salad eaters!

I could easielly make a virus. I never have been infected with one, myself though. Some of those are hilarious though. Maybe i should make one that fills up your hard drive while constantly screaming "FREELANCER R0XX0RZ!"

Too bad it fills up your hard drive by copying and running itself over and over and over. Think bacteria. you'd end up with over 10000 virus programs running on your comp ^^ Muahahahahaha.

Course, i'd have to be really, really freaking bored to make a virus like that

Precalculus class, I was bored. Took my friend Michael's calculator and reprogrammed the X variable to render a graph that said "T3H H4XX0RZ" instead of the function. Teacher loved it.

@Shroud - I would be knocking on wood right about now.

It's not a virus but it looks like ...
I have here a funny little screensaver you can install on - let's say: your dad's PC - and he might think he got a terrible PC-disease: it looks like someone had breathed from the inside of the screen on the glass. The little Program is called "Blur" and you can download it here

Just give the screensaver some minutes to take full effect you can edit the effect too

@Leonhart.....

Be careful. From what I've seen in the news lately, at least one Pennsylvania school system is not afraid of filing criminal charges against kids who mess with the school's computers (yes even underaged kids)... and I hear NJ schools are thinking of doing the same.

You can ask bp about the schools, he works on the computers at the schools, hospital and businesses around where we live. If you're wondering how I know I'm friends with his daughters.

I once had a trojan that sent emails with viruses around (that was the time when I thought Ididn't need a AV-program). My ISP blocked my internet acces so I called them to ask what I should do. They responded with: Scan/clean your computer, then sent us an email. And I was like: How can I email you, when I don't have a freakin' acces to the net?! I also told them that I *had* to use the internet to stay in touch with clients from work and that each day that I would be unable to connect I lost quite some money. They believed and gave me back my access, which I used to update my previously bought Kasperky which now scans my pc everyday

@indy: I always did the "Prnt-Scrn Desktop, use that as a background and move the icons out of the way" trick
