Was it supposed to do something? It just sat there, and then command prompt disappeared. Did I miss something?

Don't click on it. Copy " telnet://towel.blinkenlights.nl " and paste it on Run. It suppose to show an ASCII version of Star Wars Episode IV.

I just clicked on it and it worked. I don't know what's worse, that I took the time to watch the entire thing or that someone took the time to make the entire thing.

So do you know how long did it take to do that?

I saw someone said it took 5 years in another forum but I don't believe him though.
