There was an AOL instant messenger exploit back in the day where you would send a link or attachment or something and it would cause the other person’s desktop wallpaper to change to a big dick or something, and all of the desktop icons were turned into other porn thumbnails. Lastly, it would turn the windows 95 or 98 or whatever volume up to 100% and blast porn tracks. It was brutal. My friends would do it to each other all the time.
There was a whole collection of “hacker” programs seemingly exclusively made and used by 12.5-13.5-year-olds that did these things. AOHell was the most well-known.

You could send .exe and .bat executable files. Many of them were actual viruses disquised as pranks.

That was me! I was those kids! We had crews and handles (tags?) And the whole thing!
And then you look at 12 year olds now and they don’t even know how to save files, or type properly on a keyboard.
Jesus. Somebody got kicked out of their house over that, guaranteed.
