3. How worried Microsoft is about their reputation?

Well if you don’t, you will know the answers to all these questions after trying these tricks.

The number of flight that attacked the World Trade Centre was Q33N. You might ask what is the trick in that. We could have searched it on the net in an instant. But this is not the trick. The trick starts now:-

1. Open Notepad.
2. Type in “bush hid the facts” without quotes.
3. Save the notepad file as test.txt or *.txt.
4. Reopen the file to know the results.

1. Open Notepad.
2. Type in “this app can break” without quotes.
3. Save the notepad file as test.txt or *.txt.
4. Reopen the saved file to know the results.

On a serious note, none of the flight that attacked World Trade Center had the flight number Q33N. It is just a rumor which became popular due to its peculiar nature. Moreover, did you notice some similarity in trick 2 and 3? Yes, you figured it out correctly, both of the statements have the word length pattern of 4,3,3,5 which seems to cause the bug. It is not that Microsoft is that much ‘worried’ about their reputation or the U.S. President have absolute control over Microsoft.
Note: The last two tricks work on all versions of Windows but these tricks are computer specific and might or might not work on some systems running later versions of Windows after XP.
