The epic payback!

Thats right. Revenge is always sweet, and it was very sweet over this weekend.

Ill start from the very first, my name is Tom, I live in the middle of nowhere in france. The place is so secluded, we can commit any crime we like, mostly being that the police get lost when looking for us. (Only joking).

We have two friends who visit us from a small town not far away, 2 brothers; Christian and Richard.

Richard is my age, hes a programmer and makes small applications and releases them on sourceforge. This is to my disadvantage, mainly because Richard stays in my brothers room, they team up and try and install viruses on my computer. -_- . Yes, all very helarious, coming to your pc and finding 1000 files on your desktop named: your anti-virus sucks" . Every time they come, Richard finds a way to muck up my PC. Christian, on the other hand, stays with me, we try out best to fight off our attackers the best we can but we normally fail.

The ultimate attack:

When Christian and Richard's parents went to england, they came and stayed with us for the weekend. This time I was adimant that we must find a way to get our own back on those guys next door but how?

E--A--S--Y *Yawn* Easily outsmarted.

First thing sunday morning, I managed to pursuade My brother to allow me to use his pc to play "a game which wouldn't work on my pc" He agreed, I then had full access to his system.

Of corse, at that point I could have devistated his windows files, installed a propper virus, deleted important files. But my idea was to have more fun than that. I installed RealVNC on his system, I found one which runs as a background process, meaning you dont get dialog boxes popping up all the time saying: YOU ARE CONNECTED TO VNC". Me installing VNC on his PC and me installing VNC Viewer on MY pc, I could now 100% control his pc from mine. At first this upped out defences as we could see them making a very annoying virus and we were able to put a stop to it without them knowing we were spying on them.

Fumbled.

Our plan was fumbled when Christian accidentally moved the mouse across the application causing my brother's mouse to move also, that arroused suspicions about what we were being so misterious about. At that moment, he went running downstairs to complain to mum and dad about it. >:[
