You can use this trick to scare your friends or to make something useful, like reminders you put in Windows Start-up.
Here are the steps on how to do a pop-up:
1. Open Notepad and type:
text1=msgbox("your text here",52,"your title here")
You can write as many text message boxes as you want. The many you write the many pop-ups will appear.
2. Save the text as popup.vbs. Be sure the change the 'Save as Type' to 'All Files' .
3. You can use scary messages to make a prank to your friends, like:
text1=msgbox("Virus Detected",52,"Warning: VIRUS")
text2=msgbox("Virus is installing on your system",52,"Installing...")
text3=msgbox("Virus is installing on your system",52,"Installing...")
4. When you click on popup.vbs you will receive on your screen something like this:

Here's some extra tips:- If you put a shortcut to the file in the start menu's "Startup" folder, the error messages will show up on every boot.- In stead of the number 52, use 48 if you only want an OK-buttons. Use 16 for an error symbol in stead of a warning symbol.

Is there anyway you can integrate the faux shut down virus and this pop up?It would be amusing to see someone open up the notepad document and then have the shut down message pop up straight afterwards?!?!
Sweet, will have to try this out on my buddies PC.hehe.

You can join this to the shutdown virus by using the following script. it works wonderfully.---------------------------------------------------------------------------------text1=msgbox("Virus Detected",16,"VIRUS")text2=msgbox("Virus is installing on your system. Please stand by...",48,"Installing...")text3=msgbox("Virus has been installed in your system. Please wait 30 seconds for shutdown to finish installation.",48,"Installed")Const Normal_Window = 10Set objShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")objShell.Run "shutdown.exe -s -t 30", Normal_Window-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

it doesn't save as popup.vbs only popup and when i click on popup it comes up as the notepad and not a little popup box, any help?
you don't have to change the text1=msgbox to anything like text2 or text 3, it can be the same text1 each time
