This message has been edited.Yup.
In the file MSGina.dll (c:\windows\system32\ I believe) there is a dialog screen (Dialog 2210, use reshacker) with an explanation why the system unexpectedly shut down.
On the screen in Win XP Pro where one logs in initially, there is a tiny little Easter Egg.
Simply leave your computer on that screen long enough for the screensaver to come on. Then move the mouse.
Look in the bottom left corner. The litte button marked "Turn of computer" now reads "Turn off Banana 2000"!
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS\etc\quotes (on XP PRO systems)
Use reshacker to edit sol.exe.
"String Table", "64", 1033
Look up the numbers for the strings: 1008, "Heck, I don't know"
1009, "Configure Solitaire for screen shots"
1010, "Force a win"
"Menu", 1
edit that file to resemble:
1 MENU
LANGUAGE LANG_ENGLISH, SUBLANG_ENGLISH_US
{
POPUP "&Game"
{
MENUITEM "&Deal\t F2", 1000
MENUITEM SEPARATOR
MENUITEM "&Undo", 1001
MENUITEM "De&ck...", 1002
MENUITEM "&Options...", 1003
MENUITEM SEPARATOR
MENUITEM "E&xit", 1004
}
POPUP "&Help"
{
MENUITEM "&Contents\t F1", 65506
MENUITEM "&Search for Help on...", 65507
MENUITEM "&How to Use Help", 65508
MENUITEM SEPARATOR
MENUITEM "&About Solitaire", 2000
MENUITEM "&Egg 1", 1008
MENUITEM "&Egg 2", 1009
MENUITEM "&Egg 3", 1010
}
}
Compile and save. Next time you launch solitare, open the 'help' menu. There will be 3 new options, "Egg1" "Egg2" and "Egg3". Egg 1 and 2 do nothing, but Egg 3 will let you win instantly.

MHenke on Apr 14, 2004 at 1:18:38 AM (# 2512)You're welcome, but get me right, I havn't calculated the sequence, I've just found the website where they report from the search.
But you've known that, havn't you?
BTW, I like your imagination of bad primes. Tho my mind is actually biased with "serious" mathematics, it nearly coincides with my perception... =]
