Revenge of the IT geek

Post by WildRide »

One of the guys in my company made the statement "FTO's suck"

Never a smart thing to do to a sys admin.
The next time he logs on he's getting the following registry update.

Nerd alert!!!

Code: Select all

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop]

"ScreenSaveTimeOut"="60"
"ScreenSaveActive"="1"
"SCRNSAVE.EXE"="C:\\WINDOWS\\System32\\ssmarque.scr"

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Screen Saver.Marquee]
"BackgroundColor"="0 0 128"
"CharSet"="0"
"Font"="Tahoma"
"Mode"="1"
"Size"="48"
"Speed"="3"
"Text"="I will never bag FTO's again!"
"TextColor"="255 0 0"
"Attributes"="00010"

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System]
"NoDispScrSavPage"="1"
Me thinks that going to bug him pretty quickly.

Change the background colour to pink, the timeout to 1 and the text to "I LOVE THE COCK" that way everyone else in the workplace can enjoy it to :)

Translation

60 second timer.
And the screen saver tab for his display is disabled so he can't get rid of it.

Really I'm just trying to help with his productivity.
As long as he keeps working he won't see it...... :twisted:
