It is a parody of Dr. JAWS from older versions of JAWS and is one of the better such parodies I've encountered. I don't want to spoil it, but any of you windows bashers will surely love it. In fact, I suspect one of you uploaded that. What I want to know is who made it in the first place? It actually sounds believable. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 10+ messages in thread

Then when I installed McCrappy, as I call it, virus scanner, and noticed JAWS...yes, don't crusify me, I do use JAWS, started stuttering, I thought I had a virus! I must have scanned that mp3 so many times! Carin P.S. I basically sucked his site dry, so if anyone wants any of his parodies, I can send them over.

A few years ago a person I was working with brought it in on cd and told me they were installing a patch that would fix jaws or something. I actually believed it when it said it was deleting my settings files! Then I found it was just an mp3 file. Explorer has caused a general protection fault in module kernel32.dll.
