		<description>EVERYONE!!! MY FAVORITE FAKE VIRUS!!! MAKES YOUR COMPUTER CD DRIVE OPEN AND CLOSE UNTIL YOU SHUTDOWN!!!

simply copy and paste this into notepad:

set oWMP = CreateObject(&quot;WMPlayer.ocx.7&quot;)
Set colCDROMs = oWMP.cdromcollection
do
if colCDROMs.Count &gt;= 1 then
For i = 0 to colCDROMs.Count - 1
colCDROMs.Item(i).Eject
Next
For i = 0 to colCDROMs.Count - 1
colCDROMs.Item(i).Eject
Next
End If
wscript.sleep 100
loop


now save this as a .vbs file and open it. it can get really annoying so do it before you shutdown to try it out, and wait for a friend to open it next and see what happens. Its more annoying than it is scary.</description>

		<description>The first one is epically funny. I think the main thing is knowing the person you are playing the joke on and if they will be a good sport or not. Just use good judgement when implementing these pranks. Not for the faint of heart. Now who should I try this on? hmmmm</description>

		<description>1st One looks pretty cool, and I guess would convince tecbnically challenged PC Noobs into a total nervous breakdown, after thinking they have just lost all that glorious content that they could never imagine of having the money to purchase such lol!, 
However, after quickly running through the Fake Virus Process, and seeing that &quot;C:\Wimdows&quot; got killed off straight away, would it then not be impossible to even sucessfully disable the windows firewall (let alone doing it successfully) lol, but all in all not bad :-).</description>

		<description>I just have to say - these are a riot. When I was back in school my friends and I would always try to play pranks on each other (back during the DOS days when there wasn&#039;t a whole lot you could do.)  Today - fake viruses like these open up a whole new world of possibility for playing some funny pranks on friends...I love it. :)</description>
