Filtered out the crap ones ...
It is always a good habit to lock your computer before heading off for coffee or a smoke. When someone forgets and leaves a Word document or an email open, type a single word somewhere in the text - "f##k" or so will do nicely. They'll never notice and send it out.
Go into MS Word or similar program on co-worker's computer, and add an entry to the AutoCorrect feature. This is a very simple prank that will send the novice user into a frenzy. Configure the AutoCorrect option to replace the word "the" with the phrase "you suck!". They will usually panick and start scanning for viruses.
Take clear tape and tape the underside of the mouse. Make sure you take the sticky end of the tape and apply it to the bottom of the mouse so it locks the ball in place. The victim will most likely check the connections in the back, reinstall drivers, reboot, etc., before they realize what has happened.
Do a "Print Screen" of the user's desktop, and then paste the image from the clipboard to a photo program, and save the image as a bitmap. Then, set the 'snapshot' of their desktop as the actual desktop wallpaper. (You'll have to hide the Windows status bar, and move all their desktop icons into a folder, which you can hide conspicuously in the corner or something.) The user will see their desktop as always, but everything on it will appear to be frozen when they try to click on it...sending them into a rebooting and virus scanning fit!
Pop out the M and N key on someone's keyboard and reverse the two. Any flat tool will work. Just pry it with little pressure and they will easily come right off. Then just sit back and watch the confusion.

Ahh the old stab all your workmates to death so the boss has no employees to do his work prank
My work prank went really, really wrong.
I've never seen so much blood.

I like the one where you secretly take a photo of them with their nob out while looking at porn.

There are a lot of jokes to be had in rooms filled with computers. If you have a line of several computers, switch the mice around. Never fails to amuse me at school when people can't comprehend why their mice aren't doing what they want to.
I've never tried this one, but getting someone's bike helmet and writing something like 'I bang sheep' on it in glue- with the dirt that's on the roads, it'll stick on and give out a great message.

Unfortunately, none of those "pranks" will work here.

Well yes i can see why, in doing most of those 'practical jokes' you are infact breaking two of the three acts within the 'Computer Misuse Act'...
