Has anybody ever used their scroll lock for anything other than playing around with the related LED whilst bored?

What was it for originally?

&

Does anyone know of ANY programs (games or Apps) which use it for any reason at all?

Managed to get into Admin access a few days back in school... hee hee...

Changed the message you get for starting up the computer... the "All unauthorised use of software will result in..." and so on... changed it only so slighlty... no-one will ever notice...

Just getting in was good enough for me, I didn't want to bring the whole thing down.

That's next years project... last day in school... :D

Then why not change the name from Scroll Lock to...

Quake3/UT Launcher...
Instant MASH maker...
Nuclear Weapons Launch...
Give Frankenstein Life...

Ive got no scrolls... and if I did, I certainly wouldnt want to lock them...

-- I hope life isn't a big joke, because I don't get it.
