    This is a right laugh on a school intranet running Windows 9x PCs...

    Go Start->Run, then type
    Code:
    \\computername\share\con\con
    If they have drive c shared...then watch those blue screens popup...and the user's words will be blue too
    I refuse to tie my hands behind my back and hear somebody say "Bend Over, Boy, Because You Have It Coming To You".

    I love the Con/con error in Windows!
    It's great for crashing!

    There is no such thing as a bug.


    Only an "Unresolved Technical Opportunity"

    Erm

    All I get is a Error Dialog that says "The Network Name Cannot Be found"

    using this

    \\Pc04\share\con\con

    and yes that is valid, because I can get to C:
    just by doing this

    \\Pc04\c

    But is the remote computer running NT?

    dimava - it appears on the remote computer. The message is something about VFAT, and it doesn't delete anything (although open files will be obliterated slightly).
