I once bet an IT guy $5 that if he put an "out of order" sign on this really niave girl's mouse pad she wouldn't use it.
Needless to say I won, when we poppped by 5 mins later she had the pad off to the side and was trying to use her optical mouse on her glass desk (bonus laugh).

I like the desktop scrrenshot classic, but I prefer using pshop, then hiding palettes and Apple-F presentation mode.
then pick the brush, and they will draw on their desktop..
works like charm on programmers =)

put a small piece of tape on the connection from the phone to the handset. That way the phone will ring, but the handset will be dead. Drives people nuts.

My directors once gave me a pentium 4 PC with a russian version of photoshop 6 and Firework instead of Illustrator.
I thought it was a prank, but it has been the same for 2 yrs.

Swap the left and right mouse buttons around.
Turn up the double click speed on the mouse to superman hyperspeed levels.

2: true story, someone left their netflix open, needless to say that person got some lame ass movies next time around.

i was at lunch
now that i'm back
*takes gigantic deap breath... accidentally fartsyeah... an accident...
anyways.
take a screenshot of a persons desktop while they're in the can.
set that screenshot as their background then hide all the folders and icons.
then watch as they try to click on shit.
also. freeze a can of foam shaving cream and bring it in the next morning. when the foam freezes it expands and cracks the seal of the can. leave it in his desk drawer. as it thaws the foam expands and covers all their shit. and, since it's foam it's an easy, not ruining clean up.
the i.t. guy here pranked one of the interns when i first started. they were carrying computer cases from the 4th floor to the second. the elevators here are notoriously slow. so the i.t. dude took an empty shell of a computer case and filled it with books for weight and styrofoam packing beads. while they were waiting for the elevator he was like 'fuck this, comon we're going down the stairs.' the intern went first carrying the fake computer. halfway down i guess the i.t. guy yelled 'WATCH OUT' which scared the intern and he dropped the case shitting his pants (not for real but...). anyways, when the case hit the styrofoam exploded everywhere. haha.

if you work close to someone else's desk, plug in your wireless mouse to their computer and let the games begin!

stuff that has happened...
get cellophane and wrap the persons entire desk with it including their chair and or cubicle entrance.
the obvious ctrl+opt+apple+8 on a mac to some new person who has never used a mac.
move everything upside down but in the same place on the persons desk. really gets the ocd crowd.
take the spacebar out, stick a couple of pieces of tape in the space and put the space bar back on, make sure that when they press space it will go down a bit but not actually work.

...and when the boss is coming, surf to gay porn on their machine. And if you hate sitting next to them, it's a great time to ask to be moved.
