THE GREATEST MAC PRANK EVER!!!!!!!!!

video THE GREATEST MAC PRANK EVER!!!!!!!!!
This is one of the greatest pranks for a mac computer known to the human race. It is a compile of knowledge collected over about 3 months of using apple script editor on and off. I took everything I knew and compiled it into a massive killer prank that will own any victim you choose (of course, they have to have a mac). As promised in the video, here is the script you can copy into apple script editor if you don't want to memorize all the commands. VOTE FOR ME IN THE APRIL FOOLS DAY CONTEST and maybe post a comment telling me what the reaction was of your victim and how you used this prank. Peace Out

Disclaimer: I don't want to be a party pooper by posting this, but I have to. I am not responsible for any kind of trouble you get into by using this prank (I got 2 hours of detention for this prank, but it was still quite worth it) :D.

As promised here is the code:

tell application "Finder" to say "PUT WHATEVER YOU WANT YOUR VICTIM'S COMPUTER TO SAY"
tell application "Finder"
 activate
repeat # times
  make new Finder window
end repeat
end tell
tell application "PUT WHATEVER WEB BROSWER YOUR VICTIM USES HERE"
 open location "PUT RICK-ROLL SITE HERE"
end tell
display dialog "PUT YOUR TXT HERE" buttons {"FIRST BUTTON", "SECOND BUTTON"} default button 2if the button returned of the result is "FIRST BUTTON" then
 -- action for 1st button goes here
else
 -- action for 2nd button goes here
end if

Slightly late to the party, but here are a few "upgrades" to the code:

set volume 10
do shell script "say -v trinoids Virus activated"
tell application "Finder"
activate
repeat # times
make new Finder window
end repeat
end tell
tell application "NAME OF WEB BROWSER"
open location "WEBSITE"
set volume 10
end tell
display dialog "Virus propagating.
Plan of action?" buttons {"Seek and Destroy Virus", "Self Destruct"}
if the button returned of the result is "Self Destruct" then
tell application "System Events" to sleep
else
set volume 10
do shell script "say -v zarvox requesting authorisation for M,A,D, weapons strike"
do shell script "shutdown -h now" with administrator privileges
end if

Basically this turns the volume to full, says the stuff in a computer-y voice, and has the capability to shut down the computer or put it to sleep.
Use with caution. (I'm not responsible for any damage done using this btw)

Thanks to SebLim for the original "virus" code
