    Post Message Box With Random Positions

    Right now, I am working on a simple code project. It is a spoof alert that creates a message box (the reason behind it is classified). So far, I have created these lines of code for a .vbs file:

    dim ti
    ti=timer
    Do
    WScript.Sleep 200
    x=msgbox("Message", 5+48, "Title")
    Loop while (timer-ti)<20*60 '20*60 seconds

    This will create a message box that pops up every 2 seconds with two options, retry, and cancel. But. the message boxes pop up in only one spot of the screen, making it possible for the victim (it is just a prank) to easily X them all out. Is it possible to add to the code and make the boxes pop up in random positions all over the screen, making it a real pain in the ***. Any clue how to do that? Also, please share any ideas to make the prank even more rage inducing (for maximum hilarity)... Please respond ASAP! Thanks!

    We don't tolerate this kind of thing, even for pranks. There is a very fine line between a prank and an outright malicious piece of software.
