Instead of an error message it would actually crash and lock the machine, forcing the user to restart the PC 😁.
Our teacher pointed out that he could tell when it was running because after the username it would say 'Enter you password:' instead of 'Enter your password:' - pretty embarrassing for erm, whoever wrote that!
