Modify a USB drive to launch a full-screen image slide show or video of your of your choice on top of whatever the target computer is running (like a power point presentation). This technique is fully automatic, requiring no approval from the user.

=What you'll need=
# A "U3" enabled USB drive (I like the Sandisc Curzer Micro)
# A computer with internet access
# Physical access to the computer running the power point presentation (very briefly)

=Step-By-Step=
# Buy a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/U3 U3] enabled USB drive. [http://www.sandisk.com/Products/Catalog(1004)-SanDisk_Cruzer_USB_Flash_Drives.aspx Sandisc's Cruzer] is cheap and widely available, but others work too. Look for the U3 logo somewhere on the device.
#Download our [http://ran.org/fileadmin/materials/comms/special/ppt_package.zip custom PPT Hijacking Package] (WARNING: This is a big 12 MB .zip file) and unzip it to your desktop.
#Open the "U3CUSTOM" folder
#Place any photos you want in your slideshow into the "Pics" folder
#Place any videos you want in your slideshow into the "Video" folder
#For video, rename the "autorun.inf.video" file "autorun.inf". For a slideshow, rename the "autorun.inf.slideshow" file "autorun.inf" (Advanced users can edit autorun.inf to run any commands for any program on the target computer or USB drive)
#Run the "ISOCreate.cmd" program (this writes the ISO file, the disc image that emulates a CD-ROM)
#Run Universal_Customizer.exe. Follow the on screen instructions to write your new custom files to your USB device.
#Presto! Test out your new ninja culture jamming device on unsuspecting friends and nefarious CEOs.
#To switch up your photos or video (or other programs, for you advanced users), go back to step 3 and repeat.

=How it Works=
USB drives generally require users to click on an icon to execute any programs on the drive. U3 drives, however don't behave like normal USB drives.  U3 drives were designed to trick your computer into thinking that it's a CD-ROM drive, which run programs just as soon as their inserted into a machine--no user clicking required!
