Your mom says "What do you say?"
and you say "Please"

last year i did the same thing for someones 56 bday, but instead the pc read "HOW OLD IS OLD" and they had to keep typing their age in to use their pc

other than that...i have no experience in pc booby trapping

This options sounds really cool and I think it would a great option since I am stopping by her apartment Saturday morning to pick up a game I let her borrow that she had for nearly 4 months now (yeah, unbelievably the stupid-head plays some games) and this would be my only chance since my sister and I don't visit her place anymore...only problem is, I'm not sure how to exactly access this feature or perform this? I'm not too experienced/knowledgeable about computers at all, hehe.

Basically, if you have access to her pc, you would just need to install the thing in her pc, and when she goes online, you can control her Pc remotely from your home, doing nice things like moving her mouse cursor, and writing oh so funny lines in her Internet browser address field, like "I am going to punch you in the face", or "I am your grandma's ghost".

Wouldn't it be nice? And it is really doable... https://www.realvnc.com/

This is fantastic! And it would be so perfect to do so when I stop by! But, I have a question: I took a look around the site and it doesn't seem to reveal whether anyone can find out about the download. As it so happens, the brat has an older brother who is a computer nerd...he works at Best Buy, loves technology, loves computers, loves softwares...if she asks her brother what's going on, he might find out the program got installed. And I would get in trouble since I was the last person to access her computer then...and believe me, she wouldn't accuse her brother because, just like the parents, he spoils her (on her weblog, she wrote he recently got her a free IPOD Nano because he works at Best Buy...and I'm pretty sure she threw a tantrum/pouted because even her parents admits she throws temper-tantrums, throws stuff, breaks stuff...can you believe this?) and helps her out with everything. Maybe if this doesn't work out, perhaps I can just prank-call her at a pay phone with scary muffled heavy breathing sounds...
