    3. Open Microsoft Word and on the first line write : “=rand(200,99)” (without the quotes) and hit Enter.
    For number three the number of times it writes the phrase is dependent on the numbers in the rand statement

      If you're going to post this crap, at least get the full text of the spam

      MAGIC #1

      Somebody found that it is not possible to create a FOLDER anywhere on the Computer which can be named as "CON". This is something funny. At Microsoft the whole Team, couldn't answer why this happened!

      TRY IT NOW, IT WILL NOT CREATE A "CON" FOLDER

      MAGIC #2
      For those of you using Windows, do the following:

      1.) Open an empty notepad file
      2.) Type "Bush hid the facts" (without the quotes)
      3.) Save it as whatever you want.
      4.) Close it, and re-open it.

      Noticed the weird bug? No one can explain!

      MAGIC #3

      Again this is something funny and can't be explained? At Microsoft the whole Team, including Bill Gates, couldn't answer why this happened!

      It was discovered by a Brazilian. Try it out yourself?

      Open Microsoft Word and type

      =rand (200, 99)

      And then press ENTER
      And see the magic?..!

            I can't make directories called lpt1 or com1 either. It must be a neocon conspiricy.

                  Exactly. Mac users are gay because owning a flawless iconic design classic makes you happy.

                  What did you think I meant?

                      But being happy is a good thing?
