That brings back a memory. I got banned from the computers in highschool because I sent a message to everyone on the network using netware. They called me a hacker. It's literally just clicking the system tray icon and go into like send message... The message? "Hello World!"

I swear I've seen either Zero Cool or Acid Burn around here somewhere.

I did something similar. Didn't get me banned but got me inducted into the student sysadmin group instead. My highschool generally had one kid a year who did something notable enough to become an apprentice to the IT closet wizard. The hazing ritual was to deal with the fallout: respond to all the helpdesk tickets for 'weird message on screen' or 'I can't print', etc, and then listen to the older apprentices tell their tale.
