            Heres what you do.. Unlock their task bar then hide it, take a screen shot of their desktop and set their desktop image to this screen shot (of course you'd have to put it into Photoshop ( hell or even Pain) and make an image out of it, Right-Click on their desktop and uncheck "Show Desktop Icons" from the "Arrange Icons By" menu then put their task bar back in place. What you have is a desktop that looks like theirs but when they click on any icon it doesn't do anything because its just an image.

              As a result of the recent Gates, Stallman, and Torvalds summit, Microsoft has decided to go open source with all major product lines, including Windows and Office.

                smile at them constantly all day long, ask them often how they are doing, and if they saw/found/felt/heard anything odd today.... when they ask you why, say "oh nothing, nevermind" and walk away. Don't forget to smile, often. Chuckling works good too, but make sure it is real.

                  MSpaint can do this.

                      Old VB right. For some reason, I have been staying away from VB. :)
