Mainly relating to spoof emails really, like the internet link which when clicked took you to a site with flashing colour screen and declared through the loud speaker that 'hey! I'm downloading porn over here'. Which was quite unfunny in the office.
Or the other one which when clicked opened over 50 different small windows on your screen with different porn website images and when you tried to close them another two opened. That was quite literally humorous.
Some one at work cam to me and said they had bought a loptop, but when they had opend the box there was no keyboard, so he was taking it back that evening!
I asked if he'd opend up the lap top, he was most suprised to find the keyboard inside the laptop Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm
I once managed (years ago) to delete the programme files off a work computer. I was having a tidy up and clearing out some old documents and didn't realise that the folder titled 'Program Files' should be left well alone. I basically went through and deleted everything I didn't recognise!! hahahaha! Needless to say my pc didn't work after that and everything had to be re-installed from scratch.
Oh, and the other week I managed to get a computer virus on my boyfriends laptop because I was looking up porn. :o}
