This is mean but funny, a Sametime Prank
Category Sametime Joke
Someone just called me to let me know they used the Sametime Wallpaper Plug-in to play a joke on the person in the cube next door.
Here's what they did. They created a wallpaper that looks like their regular Samtime buddylist. So whilst their office mate was out getting the coffee, they rushed round to their cube, installed the plug-in, backed up the users buddylist, proceeded to delete every entry, and then set the background to the fake buddylist. They said it was quite funny to hear their colleague say things like "what the hell" or "Hey I'm clicking on people but no chat window is coming up". Apparently the other people laughing in neighbouring cubes gave it away.
This is along the lines of a similar windows prank
