Mean, but with a nice grain of gallows humor

#1 Post by coolsilicon » Mon Feb 12, 2007 5:04 pm

This mad Russian guy from Sysinternals created a nice screensaver which I can't look at without a slight shiver creeping upwards my neck. See for yourself at:

Anyway, this beast messed up the size/resolution of my opened windows. Still worth it..

Thanks for the advice. Of course, if everybody would do a thorough search before taking the risk of posting something, this forum would have xx% less postings, therefore being so much leaner and easier to use (leave alone the costs for storage caused by such superfluous, silly messages). This thing is still funny and there may be new users to this forum not exactly doing a search for such infos but still welcome them.

Must of missed that thread earlier. The one I found just did a BSOD, no reboot cycle. I like it. I have a friend I need to pull this trick on.

I'm trying it out on our junior I.T. guy in the morning. I'll have him called out to the floor and sneak it onto his PC while he's gone.

I wanna watch the hairs on his neck raise, and see a cold sweat break out.

Common sense to some of us is unfortunately the higher education others strive to attain.

@rkawakami
You're right in slapping our fingertips, not to do unnecessary postings. Didn't want to sound rude, it's just that the posting you mentioned has been sent a couple of months ago. I didn't search for it, since I didn't ask for help, instead I just stumbled upon this thing accidently yesterday and liked it a lot.

One good thing about the screensaver: unlike the normal systems screensavers it does ignore mouse movements.
