Easter eggs:

If you click 4 links on the side of the Start menu, it gives a BSoD.

If you click the picture of nyan cat 8 times, it opens nyan.cat in the fake browser.

If you let it sit for 3 minutes, the background turns black and displays "This copy of Windows is not genuine".

Open Filezilla, doubleclick todo.txt, click on the format menu button.

I think the fake browser can visit arbitrary websites.

The Spyware popup moves when you attempt to mouseover the Close button.

Has anybody downloaded `404simulator.exe` or `todo.txt`? (Seen in FileZilla in the left panel.)

I noticed that if you click/drag the titlebar of the spyware popup to the top-right corner, you can bring your mouse over the close button; if you then release the mouse and quickly click again, it'll close.

I also got a Spyware warning popup after trying to go to my own website.
