Adobe Acrobat

4. Hold down Control and press the 'Credits' button.
You'll hear a sound (probably a whale) and see the picture of a whale appear. The Credits button should say 'Harpoon' now.
You can repeat as long as you press Control and press on the Harpoon/Credits button
Special Requirements:
Adobe Acrobat 4.0
FireFox
1.
1. Download and install Firefox from www.mozilla.com
2. Open & Enter "about:mozilla" in the URL-bar (Without Quotation Marks)
This is actually a reply to the IE5 (Internet Explorer 5 from Microsoft) team's joke about Mozilla crashing computers

3 - Laugh
4 - Play with the tap (you can!)

Hidden Website
Go into the program and then go into the chat.
Type "/easteregg" (Without the quotes) and press enter.
You'll get a message and a new window, and there it shows some l33t names

Google Toolbar
Latin Message in Google Toolbar
First, open up Internet Explorer. Then click on the drop down menu on the toolbar that says "Google". After you do that, scroll down to where it says "About google toolbar". Click it.
You will then find the latin phrase "De parvis grandis acervus erit". I'm pretty sure it means "From a small pile comes great things".
Internet Explorer
Blue Screen (v4.0)
1. Type "about:whatever" in your address box
2. Type "about:mozilla" in your address box
3. Notice any difference?
4. When Windows NT crashes, it often results in a crash screen with a blue background.
5. This subtile joke is implying that Netscape causes crashes. =)
iTunes
This is a very simple and easy egg to find. Simply start Itunes and go to the music store and search "/". The Itunes program will respond with the phrase "Your search "They Are There" did not match any results." I think it's a clue that there are other easter eggs in itunes.

Spybot - Search and Destroy
Game Hidden
Hard to describe but when you have a specific window open (for example the updates window) next to the word 'update' in the title there is a little icon.
Click on this icon and you will end up with a game where you have to fill in as may squares as possible,
Not as easy as you think.
Definately an eegg as a game has nothing to do with the program
