Ha ha, I've actually heard about this before. Heh, I remember when Minesweeper was the best game I had. That game was so much fun to play, maybe I'll play it some more later. If you ask me though, this trick is kinda pointless. I mean, who really wants to own at minesweeper that bad XD
Minimize or close all running applications. Launch Minesweeper, then type xyzzy. Next hold down shift key for one second. Now when you move the mouse cursor over a Minesweeper square you will see a tiny white pixel in the top left corner of your desktop screen. This pixel will change to black when your mouse moves over a mine. You may need to change you desktop background to a solid color other then white or black to see the pixel.
This sounds odd, im not saying it doesnt work but its weird.
If it was a cheat then why such a small indication of only one pixel changing colour? And if its just something that happens due to a bug then why does it happen?
Its odd, i havent tried it yet because im at college but there ya go.
I'm not reading this! You should alert people that this is spoiler. Now and then i like to play minesweeper, and thank god i didn't read this couse it would kill the game for me. Warning peeps - it's a spoiler
Neat little trick, spose it's so small so you can fool your friends into thinking your some master minesweeper player . That's what I'm using it for. Pretty nifty that's for sure. Thanks for sharing.

well sometimes only knowing that you can do something really spoiles the game. that's why i didn't read it, and i don't know it now. but i think author of the topic should've mentioned it's spoiler at first place
It's not a Spoiler. It's only a Spoiler if you use it. Besides that the game is still great if you dont use it. Read it or not it's still a cool trick to use when you want to beat someone.

How can you seriously take that so seriously?
It's a little game!
Not sure if I'd call it simulation either
Oh well.
Well, I've seen this before, and I've used it once, but it's a little too much of harrassment to do for a small game like this.
its in XP but in order to see the square you need to have a dark background on your desktop or in order to see this white 1 pixel size square in the upper left corner. Also for those who don't because I didn't till I tried it out but the timer doesn't start when you put the flags on, and so you can get a very lower score like those who don't cheat .
