Its always fun to pull over a fun and harmless joke on a friend or co-worker. I love this one because it can drive even the experienced person nuts and yet its so easy. Plus it causes no harm, its just a harmless prank.

First you have to have access to their computer. Take a screen shot of their desktop background. Screen shots are easy to do and simple click on print screen > open paint and hit "ctrl + V"

when you do this it will paste in your screen shot of their desktop - here is mine:

Now you have to remove the taskbar at the bottom so simply cut it out

Now you want to change their computer wallpaper - make the new wallpaper the screen shot (minus the taskbar). After you do that you need to hide their icons.

To hide the icons:
Vista/Windows 7: (as in the pic above) right click on the desk top > View > Uncheck "show desktop icons"
XP: Right click on desk top > "Arrange Icons by" > uncheck "show desktop icons"

now sit back and watch as they try and click on their icons on their desktop not realizing that its a picture and their icons are hidden. Generally after a few minutes they give up thinking they have some virus. At this point you can let them in on the joke or be the hero and "fix" the computer ROFL

Re: Computer Jokes To Play On Friends And Co-Workers

I did this with a piece of software we use at work. I minimized all her programs then changed the background to the screen shot. It totally confused her for 10 minutes. Another good one it put tape over the ball of the mouse or mostly unplug it from the back of the machine.
