can you gain VNC access to other users computers and move the screen about etc whilst they are at their desk?
We gain knowledge faster than we do wisdom!
Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in
sideways, thoroughly used, totally worn out and loudly proclaiming... "f*ck, what a trip!"

if you have plastic cups and a water fountain, fill up a fair few cups, place on victims desk, then staple them all together. then watch them get
wet.
Glue phone handset to phone unit.
turn screen on computer upside down, cntrl, alt down arrow. (i think this is the best one to be honest.)

Prise all of the keys off the keyboard and rearrange into an 'amusing' message.

Damnit - thought I'd invented that!! Excellent one.
Me and a colleague used to send those 'net send' messages over the network. Worked best on more senior colleagues. One of the best was
informing the colleague (who was writing a report) to refrain from pressing the space bar for 30 minutes while the IT guy was clearing a network
error. Can't remember the exact official sounding wording we used. Should have heard the language from our colleague directed at the IT suppot
guy hee hee hee. We were soon told to stop using the net send function for jeuvanile purposes 
Another great thing was to swap a couple of keys around on a keyboard but also having gone to the trouble of creating a custom windows keyboard layout
so the swapped keys seeme to work correctly in their new position. Best for someone who can't type well so has to look at the keyboard but has
enough familiarity with the corect layout by pure routine to have a feeling something is just wrong. We changed different keys over at different
times over a fair period - really messed with them.

A good extension/alternative to this is to create a powerpoint presentation consisting of one slide of a 'print screen' of the
victim's desktop as it should be. and another slide with the desktop upside down. Then play the presentation full screen set to loop. Victim
has a working mouse cursor and desktop looks normal. But every mouse click just flips the desktop upside down then back again by advancing the
powerpoint presentation

I was always a fan of filling their office/cubicle with styrofoam peanuts. Or you can wrap everything in foil. Makes for some good laughs.
I'm not scared!!! I'm just marking my territory.

tried most of them already to be honest.
quite like the powerpoint one though. the thing is we all are now so paranoid about leaving our pc's un attended there is virtually no chance
of actually being able to use my prankees pc
have to be careful about damaging anything or doing anything which could "affect productivity"
one of the best one i have heard of is to hide a wireless doorbell in someones office and then remotely remotely let it off at odd times. If its well
hidden and, this example was behind a ceiling tile, it can provide fun for weeks. The chap in question went absolutely crazy mad and never worked out
who was doing it or where the noise was coming from.

I left a post it on the desk of a girl in our office saying
A Mr C Lyons called. something about having received a parcel from us. Please call.
Then I left the number of Humberside Sea Lion Sancturary. She phoned the number and asked for Mr C Lyons and the woman said 'sorry he's
down by the pool having his lunch'. That was when the office errupted with laughter.
