There was something I used to do involving running regedit and making it so a popup window comes up before logging into your windows, and you cuold give it any message you like "stop downloading porn" or "your computer has 23098 viruses" or something to freak people out... I forgot how to do it now, and the forum that the tutorial is on is no longer active or available

EDIT

google is my friend, i googled this thing and found another forum with a tutorial on it



Step 1: Open Registry Editor (Start -> Run -> "regedit" -> [Enter])

Step 2: Navigate to the following registry keys:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\LegalNoticeCaption
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\LegalNoticeText

Step 3: Change those two to whatever you want and the will appear next time you log in.

have fun with that one do it to a buddy or something and watch them fraek. it doesn't braek anything, you just click "OK" on the message and you go to log in normally
