===========================================

Most of the coding goes in C#, invoking native windows APIs

Since, I am feeling Kinda Lazy :O, so Iโ€™ll not be discussing the coco-jumbo of the code here, most of the code is โ€œdocumentedโ€ or self explanatory

But one thing I would like to point out is that, entire prank is spread over two files:

  1. Program.cs
    • Checks that program should start prank or not
    • Sets up/unsets Registry keys for auto start up at windows logon
    • Show hardware crash error message
    • Pops up CD drive.
    • All the desktop freaky stuff
    • Calling DummyDesktop Form
  2. DummyDesktop.cs
    • Toggle Desktop Shell.ToggleDesktop()
    • Copy Windows Desktop image and replicate on Window Form (Yeah! thatโ€™s Dummy Desktop)
    • Show some more funny Images
    • Finally perfrom Matrix Call (From Matrix-1 Movie, that Knock Knock! call on computer screen)
    • Never Exit.
  3. To exit in the end, press Alt +F4
  4. WARNING: The program is protected by AFL (April Fool License :P)
