Jokes (JOKES)
Jokes are merely intended to give someone a fright or provide general amusement
without causing harm or reproducing. When a joke program is loaded, the computer will
usually start at some point to play a tune or display something unusual on the screen.
Examples of jokes are the washing machine in the disk drive (DRAIN.COM) or the screen
eater (BUGSRES.COM).

But beware! All symptoms of joke programs may also originate from a virus or Trojan. At

themselves may cause real damage.
