Share all those you know about, especially funny ones.



FIREFOX:
Here's one for Firefox. Type the following line in the adress bar, and it opens an instance of firefox inside firefox (this can be done again inside the sub-instance that was just created)
Code: 
chrome://browser/content/browser.xul
Another one:
Code: 
 about:robots

YAHOO
Go to the Yahoo! site, wait for it to finish loading. Then click on the the exclamation point in the red Yahoo logo. You might be surprised at what it triggers...


IMGBURN:
There are many hilarious statements, comment phrases and error messages that are slipped inside for all sorts of events.

ZSNES has some easter eggs, IIRC. Change the date on your computers and run it to different holidays to see what pops up (I forget which holidays exactly). IIRC, there was a message that popped up on April Fools day. IIRC, FL Stuidio has easter egg messages on holidays as well. Adobe Photoshop was known to have some easter eggs in the about screen in older versions.

This "Doom-alike"-thing is something I've read about Microsoft Excel 95 many years ago:

Excel Easter Eggs - Eeggs.com

Just remembered. Gotta test it soon, if it still works with 2003.

EDIT (17.10.2008): Seems it was removed. :( Tested also with lines "103" and "2003".
