Remember that Win98 virus?
That got you click then it pop-up a Message box stating that it would format the C:\ drive and offered you a the option of OK or Cancel but when you tried to move the mouse to click the cancel the message box scooted away.

That virus was a riot. I remember friends in a absolute panick trying everything to click the cancel button. Never thought of just using ctr-alt-del to stop the program. Or Alt-Tab to get focus and using the arrow key to hit cancel. The virus did nothing other than that.
