Everyone has seen those annoying online popup advertisements that show a surveillance camera or a TV monitor with some sexy women on it. Popup Prank is a gag software program that allows you to simulate these but with the photos of your choice.
A prank program that makes it appear as if all of the software on your computer is being removed using the Windows Add/Remove Program feature. When you first run Add/Remove there is no other option but OK, and as soon as you click on that the fun begins.
A parody of Microsoft's annoying paper clip office assistant that hides in the background for 1 minute, then pops up in the lower right hand corner of the screen and spouts useless nonsense about your computer.
Randomly swaps the mouse pointer cursor with at user defined intervals. Swap with standard system cursors or download some from our Icon Animation page. To reset back to your normal cursors go to My Computer > Control Panel > Mouse > Pointers tab then click OK.
Dirty Mouse is a desktop prank that simulates the mouse ball is dirty. How many times have you tried to move your mouse and it does not move? Most people remove the mouse ball to ensure that it is clean and there is nothing preventing the mouse from working properly. Dirty Mouse will drive your friends insane!
Makes it appear as though an "unwanted" file is being
downloaded from a site randomly selected from a list of "undesirables" and proceeds to simulate downloading an
equally distasteful file. Trying to cancel
or stop the program results in restarting the download process.

Clicking on the YES button will slowly make each piece of text rotate 180

"An application error has occurred. This is probably because you have been fucking around with your system again. Have you been fucking around with your machine?" Clicking no causes a "I'm a liar" button to pop up. Selecting either this option or "Yes" causes a window with one of those annoying Teletubby freaks and a silly message to pop up in a window.

Infest your victim's computer with phony pop-up message dialogs! You can specify the text to be displayed, the image, the buttons, and when to display the message. Very clever.
Makes your mouse cursor jump to random locations on your screen. Specify the interval of time between each move, the amount of space to move the cursor and in which direction for more fun!
This joke application will just open the CD drive, puzzling most users. Great joke to change a shortcut to a commonly used application or add it to the Startup Menu.
Displays a
fake, but very realistic, password box to the user. No matter what key the
user presses, it starts typing in its own password. Once the password is
entered an error message is displayed to the user telling them their
password is not long enough.
Starts by displaying
a standard welcome screen with text added to make the installation appear illegal. The next screen displays a bogus software license agreement. The final screen summarizes the installation or setup of
this program. If the user chooses to finish the installation, a message displays telling them the authorities were notified.
A hidden software program that will play gross burp sounds randomly every minute until closed. There are many different burp sounds to choose from... listen long enough and you might even hear a small fart. Also has an added feature of turning the internal Windows volume to maximum just before burping, then restoring it back to the original settings.
Rotate is a desktop manipulator that will randomly flip the desktop into all
sorts of weird positions. It can flip it over, reverse it or flip and
reverse it. For an added benefit we change the users cursor to a "?" to aid
in the confusion.Each time you run Rotate it is different, so keep playing.
When you launch Screen Screw it will appear as though your screen has some type of problem painting its colors. The entire screen will have an odd color tint that keeps changing to different colors.

Y2K is a silly software program that spoofs all of the Y2K issues. It simulates fixing your BIOS, mouse, monitor, and even corrects your calendar problems by changing all letter Ys to letter Ks. If you have a sound card, it is even better because it pretends to detect an error, and requires you to place your desktop on its side.
