that was pretty cool it scared the crap outta me when i went to it. Who did you get that from. Have you watched it to the end.I closed the program as soon as it said removing 200 programs.

Watch it to the end… if you don't do anything, it plays out and nothing happens.

Just scares unsuspecting people!

I watched it to the end. It comes up as a mac computer. It is actually quit funny. I wounder if you could actually use it as a mac computer.

MmmBeer

I watched it all.. I watched it on a MAC OS 8 also. It went too fast for me to read anything.. Ill try on a PC.

Pooga

it trashed my computor nothing worksd right now

:-) Did it ever work right in the first place? LOL

Considering it's just a Web graphic, it really scares the hell out people who aren't familiar with computers!

I tried it and yes it did go to the grey-screened Mac ad, were we supposed to click on the icons? My computer moves too slow (~200Mhz) and I too impatient to wait for any movement.

Pooga

Come folks… it is just a picture</i>!

Nothing's clickable! It does absolutely NOTHING!

Close the window and get on with whatever you were doing….

PS, it works best on slow connection machines to see the show, Mhz means NOTHING.

(Man, having to explain a joke to you non-Saskatoon people makes me want bang my forehead against a brick wall! It might even be more rewarding.)

eh? Je ne comprends pas Canadian culture. HA HA HA HA HA JUST KIDDING!

Well you know, you just never know with all the potential computer viruses out there. On the evil site some guy put up a link in his profile, many people including myself clicked onto it and it crashed our computers! Harmless though scary, he said he did it to test internet security/ (our gullibility). Live and learn.

I thought the site was funny, I even e mailed the address to alot of my friends, but I dont think they know what a mac is!
But the site diddnt cause any problems with my computer, but then again I have a super computer (well it was)

I don't get scared about the computor I can always buy another one but my icons roam the screen on there own and I have to right cllick when I used to left click

Actually Pooga, at the end of the animation (where it's simulating the deleting of your files), it loads a Java Applet (at least on the Windows machine I tried it on) which then simulates a Mac. Pretty cool. Try the site on someone elses Windows machine. The menu bar works, as do the icons. Neat. Didn't work under Linux Mozilla though.

Hey HOGGS
I knew someone who had the same problem, dont know what he did about it though.
But it sounds kind of cool!
Maybe a little annoying.

I also liked Pooga's idea of hitting his head against a brickwall. Always coming up with innovative ideas for self-improvement.
