Once the user logs into Windows XP Horror Edition, they are greeted by a desktop wallpaper full of skulls, the Start button replaced with text reading <code>''DEAD''</code> and a bloody white hand, and four icons labeled <code>My Computer</code>, <code>NOTHING</code>, <code>DON'T OPEN ME.txt</code>, and <code>Recycle Bin</code>. The desktop background changes to various creepy pictures and glitchy effects, accompanied by [https://youtu.be/6WyH5E8Xs0c Thresh's Theme] from ''[[wikipedia:League of Legends|League of Legends]]''. The malware also changes the default cursor to a bloody cursor, and when hovering over certain assets, it changes to an eyeball cursor. | Once the user logs into Windows XP Horror Edition, they are greeted by a desktop wallpaper full of skulls, the Start button replaced with text reading <code>''DEAD''</code> and a bloody white hand, and four icons labeled <code>My Computer</code>, <code>NOTHING</code>, <code>DON'T OPEN ME.txt</code>, and <code>Recycle Bin</code>.

The user is then [[jumpscare|jumpscared]] by Lisa from the ''[[wikipedia:Silent Hills|Silent Hills]]'' demo, [[wikipedia:P.T._(video_game)|''P.T.'']], and then is greeted with<code>GO TO SLEEP</code> written in blood on the screen. | Clicking the <code>''DEAD''</code> button opens the Start menu, which appears in red and shows that the username has been changed to <code>666</code>.

The Peaceful version of the software differs from the Destructive version in two ways. First, after the Phantom Balloon Boy jumpscare and fake RSoD, the application simply closes instead of triggering a BSoD and overwriting the MBR.
