Oh yeah, when I pressed the high contrast thing, my computer started beeping like it does when you get sticky keys.

programs to run on "run"

command - Command Prompt
mspaint - MS Paint

And uhh... I think that's all I remember.

EDIT: Using the middle button (if you have one), to click a link in Firefox, will open it in a new Tab.

if u type:
sol -solitaire

Typing 'shutdown' at the command prompt will log off from WinXP. Putting a shortcut that executes 'shutdown' in the startup folder will make the computer log off right after logging in (I havent tried it though). I think you can choose the exact behavior of shutdown.exe at the command line, and make it restart immediadley, which creates quite a death loop.

edit:

typing:

Code:

shutdown -r -t 0

will restart the computer in 0 seconds delay. the default is 30 seconds delay when omitting the -t argument. If you don't want to completely incapacitate the computer, you're better off leaving the delay at default, so that though computer is borked for use by any ordinary user, but can still be fixed (without safe mode) by someone knowledgeable. The only way to abort the shutdown is to type at the command line

Code:

shutdown -a

it's funny to do a shutdown with a delay of several hours in computer stores. You can put a comment in the shutdown window, to scare customers looking around. The dialog box looks really serious if they don't know what it is.

Yea I should get warned for it. Because it never gets tossed around in the IRC chat.

Yea, when I am on my (dreadful) PC I am always hitting the F9 key with no avail.
