Sorry no webpage for this app, but if I ever start making prank programs again I'll create my own page on my site for that purpose.

About The Program:
BlackScreen is a cross platform application that makes your monitor look black, no desktop, icons, or even your cursor. It's a great way to prank your family, and friends. Go ahead, and give it a try, just don't get the crap beat out of you

NOTE: Downloads Include Source Code, and the Linux download includes the GNOME program, and the KDE program.

Windows Requirements:
• Windows XP/Vista/7 32bit and 64bit
• 705KB of hard disk space
• .NET Framework 4.0

Linux Requirements:
• Linux (Works on GNOME, and KDE as well as 32bit and 64bit)
• 17.7KB of hard disk space

<strong>NOTE</strong>: If the Linux program won't run make sure it's set as an executable, and if so try installing the following packages, and it should run smoothly. (package names may vary depending on the distro you're using; these are for Ubuntu!)

libgtk2.0-dev

Isn't this like the white-screen u made some time ago ?

[Noob.exe]

it can easily be solved by pressing alt+F4, alt+tab, ctr+alt+delete, or even Start...

Fix:

Regain Focus:

Code: Select all

    <DllImport("user32.dll")> Shared Function GetForegroundWindow() As IntPtr
    End Function

    Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
        BackgroundWorker1.RunWorkerAsync()
    End Sub

    Private Sub BackgroundWorker1_DoWork(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.ComponentModel.DoWorkEventArgs) Handles BackgroundWorker1.DoWork
        While True
            If GetForegroundWindow() <> Me.Handle Then
                Me.Activate()
            End If
            Threading.Thread.Sleep(500)
        End While

    End Sub

stop form from closing:

Code: Select all

Private Sub Form1_Closing(...)
    e.cancel = true
end sub

hope this helps!

but if u do end process using ctrl+alt+delete then it will close.

Yeah their similar, but not identical, it's just another way I thought to screw with my friend Chris.

it can easily be solved by pressing alt+F4, alt+tab, ctr+alt+delete, or even Start...

Yeah, but some don't know that my friend Chris freaked, it's not suppose to be hard to close though, just to scare someone.

Wooo Hooo I finally finished the Linux version, and foundout why the cursor wasn't hiding it's cause the window isn't a window until it's shown it's just a widget, and I had to put my hide cursor code after it, which is where I was screwing up.

Anyway the Linux version is up now, and the project is no longer in development, just another app to prank people, and have fun.

[Usman55]

Cool, is there any possible way to stop the window from closing by any way? I mean like the viruses do.

[mikethedj4]

Yeah, but I'm not gonna add it in, cause I don't want it to become a pain to close all it is is to prank people into thinking their computer is broken. I personally wouldn't fall for it, but for others that are dumb with computers, like my mom it'll be a good laugh.

See what I'm saying???

[Agust1337]

Yeah I don't think that's a good idea
