Do you follow rules? Nah! Why would you!?

How many of you have actually clicked the DO NOT CLICK HERE! link in my signature?

**marex** · Aug 13th, 2001, 03:09 AM

On this moment I haven't.

After sending this I will do it.

although it wasn't very smart of me to click on it, i'd like to point out that tomcatexodus is a moron. the link crashes windows.

**marex** · Aug 13th, 2001, 03:22 AM

I was very lucky, didn't do it yet

Ray

**tomcatexodus** · Aug 13th, 2001, 03:24 AM

Ow...

Gimme a break, 'moron' is a little strong...

(Besides, it does in fact clearly state that you should 'not click there'

)

nullus · Aug 13th, 2001, 03:26 AM

well, posting links that crash windows isn't exactly clever, so i'd say it's moronic.

but then, clicking on links that seem suspicous is also moronic

ROTFLMAO!

Btw@Nullus...

Don't you ever read the hyperlink description at the bottom of IE/Netscape on the statusbar? It tells you what youre accessing... and when it makes reference to file:///c:/... I'm generally careful not to touch it, unless I know what it is...

(Hey... you could theoretically FDisk somones computer through a hyperlink!!!! LMAO

)

nullus · Aug 13th, 2001, 03:35 AM

yeah, i did read it, which is why i thought it was suspicous. but i wasn't sure what it did, so me being human, i clicked it

**marex** · Aug 13th, 2001, 03:36 AM

Are you giving hints

Ray

**tomcatexodus** · Aug 13th, 2001, 03:42 AM

Hmm... yeah, if you see that link change to:
FILE:///C|/FDISK%A0%C:
Just disregard it, and go ahead and click...

**Mark Sreeves** · Aug 13th, 2001, 03:46 AM

I clicked the link and it just opened a new browser... nothing else.

I don't think that con trick works on NT4

**tomcatexodus** · Aug 13th, 2001, 03:47 AM

Better yet... DELTREE...

**tomcatexodus** · Aug 13th, 2001, 03:49 AM

Nah... It wouldn't Mark, it's only a bug in the Windows 95'/98' kernel component. Thats why if you use NT4, or Linux for that matter, it wont work... It also works if you do AUX/AUX, and I don't know how that affects an NT4 system...

Hehe...

(I have some big future plans for that little link...

)

**tomcatexodus** · Aug 13th, 2001, 04:37 AM

Ok, will someone runnin' Linux please click on the link? Make sure all your stuff is saved though, because this may or may not crash your computer

**filburt1** · Aug 13th, 2001, 05:06 AM

I have signatures turn off, so

**parksie** · Aug 13th, 2001, 06:36 AM

You're very late on the uptake with that one - it's been done before and most people are patched.

**scsa20** · Aug 13th, 2001, 02:57 PM

hmm...does that link works on Windows Me?? I'm afrind to try it if it does or doesn't (have alot of stuff on here that I don't want to lose)

**parksie** · Aug 13th, 2001, 02:59 PM

It probably doesn't. However, everyone should always get the security updates from windowsupdate.microsoft.com before doing anything after you install it.
