Write a nice intelligent fork cherry bomb. It eats up some process tables and CPU time, but still allows some modicum of real work to get done. Make the system erratic and unresponsive, but only for brief periods (a few seconds to a minute). Be sure and choose executable names at random (from a list of typical background tasks).
[Not Perl] Install VNC on the victim machine, remote in, type the odd character at critical times (password input, command line parameters), and have a stealth mouse war.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
