Here's a computer prank i know:
1-close all windows and stuff so your just at the computer's normal desktop.
2-hit prntscreen to take a scrn shot, then go into paint and cntrl+v it in (say yes to resizing)
3-save thsi paint file as somethign like teeheehee.jpg
4-make it so their icons are gone, the easiest way is to set it so that folders dont show up in view as webpage, but there's a bunch of different ways so they are gone (it might work better to make a folder on the C: drive and put all the icons in that for easy retrieval)
5-grab the buttom bar and pull it allt he way down so all that can be seen is a little rim (not icons or start menu or anything)
6-set the desktop background to teeheehee.jpg or whatever you saved it as in step 3.
7-leave and watch them try to open stuff |

[EDIT]also make sure your mouse is on the lower right corner so it is out of the way of the screenshot. _________________

It also might have a better effect if you save it as a bmp file instead of a jpg (it will be a little blurry). _________________

Go to file and choose 'Save As' and chose a location from the drop-down menu at the top. Or, if you saved it already, do a search for the filename and move it where you want. _________________

once you hit print screen, its moved to your copy palette thing (so you can hit ctrl+v to paste it into something like Paint) |
