My great virus
 
So I thought I had a virus on my computer because when I would leave the cursor in the text box it would start typing on it's own. Turns out that the USB webcam that has a microphone built into it was getting disturbance THROUGH THE SHIELDING from my surround sound speakers that cross over the USB cord, and the speech to text was converting it into what it thought it was saying. I found out when it wasn't doing it while the TV was muted, but the second I unmuted it I had a sentance worth of text. Well, that was a fun virus... lol

haha yeah I still dont understand how it was going through the shielding of both sets of wires, but whatever.. I sat there with my mouth right by the webcam and was yelling words but it wasn't hearing anything, second I unmuted the TV -- BAM it starts typing again. I thought for sure someone had subbed me, I remember doing the same ****.

I once SubSeven'd a friend, and managed to use his webcam to time exactly when his head would be close to the CD rom drive, and hit him in the head with the CD tray.

And I was watching it all in real-time, no less. Hilarious.

lmao. Love sub7, used to do that **** back when it was fairly new, god **** those were good times!

I had subbed this one girl I didn't know, opened the screen capture and the key stroke logger, she was typing an IM to a friend and I made it send "I believe in the mercy of jesus christ!" a few times in the IM and she typed "oh my god my computer is posessed, i'm calling the cops" or something to her friend, and I made her printer print in size 72 font "911 cant save you" lmao :rollingla she restarted her computer and then virus scanned, but **** good times!

Subbed my dad... I'd move cards around for him on freecell, inverted his screen's colors and flipped the screen, then I sat there making his cd-rom open and close a few times before he finally caught on.

I've never done anything malicious though, like making people's printers spit out page after page of gibberish.

All of my pranks have been relatively harmless... except for the bruise I left on my friend's head. (No lie!)

meissen 02-03-2005 01:19 PM

lol making a printer print is relatively harmless too, waste of paper at most. With sub7's capabilities, I consider "malicious" to be the stealing passwords part, deleting the harddrive and such..

Changing the desktop picture on the family PC profile to Goatse?
