Open tons of windows so it fills up the screen. Leave a space for the icons. Also press Control-Alt-Delete. Press PrintScrn on the top of your keyboard. Then go to paint or any picture processing program, then press Control-V, and you have a picture off your desktop. Then save the picture and place as your background. It looks like your computer is frozen.

Extra: If you have an older version of windows, you might be able to minimize the bar that has start and shows the windows.

I speak Illiterati, so here’s a translation:

Open a bunch of windows on top of each other. Remove the Windows taskbar. Press the Print Screen key, which is between the F12 and the Scroll Lock keys. Open Paint. Press Ctrl-V. When it asks if you want the bitmap enlarged, tell it Yes. You now have a screen shot. Save it. Exit Paint. Go back to the desktop and remove all the icons you can; too bad you can’t send the Recycle Bin to the Recycle Bin. Right-click somewhere in the background, and select Properties. Set the background to the screen shot you created earlier. Now it looks like the computer is frozen.

This is a great trick which I have done myself in an office setting. I like the trick and variations described.

Then when you come back and "fix" the problem you’re like the hero...
