Tomorrow? This news has been around for a week or so: you'll have to check the archives by now. ;)

Anyhow: the best thing about this 'virus' is that it isn't a virus at all.

That rocks! It's a good one to play on lunch break...most designers would think they totaly lost their minds

Are you suggesting all designers have already partially lost their minds?

In the old days we used to take a screen shot. Open it in Photoshop. Use full screen preview mode and press tab to remove the palettes. . . then disconnect the keyboard and mouse. I had users so frustrated that one actually nearly handed in his resignation because 'he couldn't work under these conditions!' It was evil I know, but when you're young! lol Provided a good laugh though. The smart ones figured it out pretty quickly so no harm done. . .

Which leads me to suggest any other pranks people performed on other people with their macs?
