Awesome Bloing Gloing V2

I was bored in computer math and created a Visual Basic program that displays Boing Gloing bouncing very fast.

Email me if you want it.

What I did is I put it on the scheduled tasks so that when my mom logged on, it showed up. It was awesome! Here's how to do this

For XP:

Enter the user profile you want it to run in
Click Start
Go to Control Panel
Select Scheduled Tasks
Double Click Add Scheduled Task
Click OK to go to the next screen
Click the Browse Button
Find the BG exe and click on it and hit Open
Choose the option "When I log in"
Ignore the password stuff and hit next
Check the checkbox "Open advanced properties when I hit finish"
Click Finish
If you get an error, that's OK. Click OK.
The advanced properties window opens.
Check the checkbox "Run only if I'm logged on"
Hit OK
Log off and log on to see if it works

To remove the task

Open Scheduled Tasks again
Right click on the BG task
Click delete on the pop up menu

Most of you guys have XP. If you have Vista, email me and I'll tell you how to do it

To stop Bloing Gloing once he starts!!!

1. You must have another program open (Ex. Paint, Word, this internet site, anything) unless you are running Vista.
2. Press Alt-Tab.
3. Immediately after, press Alt-F4. (If you looked at this information between steps 2 and 3, you must restart step 2)
4. Bloing Gloing should disappear.

  1. Hey Dan, you might want to tell them how to shut it off (not take it off, just shut it off) The alt tab thing.
