Posts like this always make me nervous - very little intro, and a link to click on. Rings to many bells re virus' warnings and so on. Can you tell us a little about what this is about? No matter how impervious Macs may be, practising "safe computing" still makes sense to me!

Mac57, it's not a virus, though you have made me think a bit about my web-surfing practices. It's a very accurate representation of the Windows OS.

I didn't play with it before, I just got to all the errors and quit. I'm not a Windows fan, but it's not quite that bad...

Hard to believe.... (shakes head...)
I just got a negative rep for my post above. The person leaving the rep, who didn't bother to identify themselves, told me to "stop being paranoide (sic)"
Sigh... (shakes head....)

yeah, I came across this some years ago - very funny. Windows RG, heheh.
I've seen other 'games' like this. Another one was based on windows, and you had to close as many popups and error messages as you could within the time limit. The guy sitting in front of the computer in the game had a whole selection of humourous lines - pretty entertaining for the idea of the game. I don't think I managed to get a high score, since I've hardly used PC at all, and wasn't accustomed to all those flashing dialog boxes

These things are all over the internet
I brother found a really funny one on newgrounds about a year ago
It amazing how hippocritical people are, they hate windows yet they still use it?
But why are all these animations based on predecesors to xp? Admitedly these versions wernt as stable but it would make the animation look more modern
Funny clip though, makes me laugh as i used to have stupid pop ups like that before i converted to mac
