There's an old joke program that I used to have on one of my old backup CD's that got left behind when I moved that I have had for YEARS. I'm trying to find it again, but can't find that particular one for some reason.

It's a joke program that when you run it, there's a message from Coca-Cola that says how it values you as being a great customer (etc., etc.) and as a reward is giving you a free cup holder. Then it has an "O.K." button to press to "redeem" your prize. Once you press O.K., your CD-Rom drive opens. :grin: I wanted to use that joke on somebody, but can't find the old program. If anybody knows where I can download that particular one at, please let me know. Thanks.

I remember that.

I remember that.

I kept it years ago, because I kinda thought (and still do when I use it on other people) that it was funny. :)

That's not the right program. The one I'm thinking about only opens it once, and only after giving them a message that would make them want to click it.

lol i've never heard of that

hmmm I'm having trouble locating that one then. :dontknow:

Try computerpranks.com

I finally found (after a bunch of failed attempts due to the link not being around any more) a site with a working link to it. You have to scroll down a little on the page, but it's there. Keep in mind that some programs (My McAfee software included) will detect it as a possible PUP (Potentially Unwanted Program) because it gives access to your CD drive. Just tell it to trust the program if it does, and then run it. I checked it already and other than that, it has no viruses, etc. detected in it.

The name of the file is Coke Gift (http://www.laughs.com.au/Funstuff/fun_software.htm) There apparently are a lot of other joke programs on there too. :)

I used to like sending the Australian file...which turns your screen upside down.

Awesome!

Did you try it out? :)

Nod32 (my antivirus) detected it as "coke joke" and it terminated it

:lol:

Did ya like it? :grin: It's a good prank to use on people (even if this file has been floating around the internet for quite a few years, since a lot of people still have never heard of it)

Especially the younger people. I actually remember this program, but I don't remember the coke part.
