Newton Virus (Mac)

The Newton Virus is one of the only viruses on a Mac. Well, if you could call it a virus. This is more of a prank application, that is funny, amazing, and revolutionary. Keep on reading to become enticed by this awesome application! 

Basically, once activated, it silently runs in the background. It waits until it detects movements on your computer, then waits 30 seconds to attack. Its attack is not really an attack, it just collapses your menu bar, and desktop icons on the desktop. If running on a MacBook Pro, it uses the built in motion sensor to move the icons around if the laptop is tilted. 

This program looks amazingly real, and makes a great prank for your friends. Here is a video for it:
