| Anybody remember when early computer viruses were harmless pranks? You'd start up your computer and it would play "The William Tell Overture" constantly, or a happy face would bounce all over the screen, or it would change your wallpaper to a different picture. But when you re-booted your PC or hit a certain key, the virus would delete itself and no harm done.
Now we get "Code Red", and worms, and all this other crap.
So, if you had the talent to design a HARMLESS virus, what would you have it do?
Edit : Can't figure out what's wrong with this thing. The html code looks right in the editing window.

| I'd have a Sesame Virus in which the Sesame Street theme would play over and over, and there would be an animated gif of all the charcaters dancing across your screen.

| or i used to love the one with the ambulance that would cross your screen every so often.
"He who knows when he can fight and when he cannot will be victorious.
He who understands how to fight in accordance with the strength of antagonistic forces will be victorious.
He whose ranks are united in purpose will be victorious.
He who is well prepared and lies in wait for an enemy who is not well prepared will be victorious. "!!
6:00am another chick in the house,
6:15 another chick kicked her out ,
Spent one minute trying to dig her out,
the other 14 tried put it in her mouth.

| I would make one that would put a big message on your screen that says But computers are supposed to make your job easier every time you hit Ctrl-Alt-Del
---Edit---
I'd also like to make one that serves as a moral conscience. Every time you look at a website that has the words "asian" "sucking" "nude" "barely legal" or "Amsterdam" it would play a sound clip that says "Shame shame shame, spanky"
I can levitate birds.
No one cares.
