Look for nice, small, demonstrable hacks understandable for laymen

As the title says, I'm looking for hacks, tools, tricks that are suitable for demonstrating to non-professionals. As great as pass-the-hash or a buffer overflow is for professionals, they are unsuitable for explaining security to a person without IT affinity. Here are a few examples of what I am already using:

  • MicroJoiner, to quickly and graphically build a "dropper".
  • "Stealing" a browser history, which of course contains dirty pages
  • Mimikatz to read Minesweeper from memory. This is a thousand times more understandable than a Kerberosticket.
  • A small software keylogger
  • and of course a Rubber Ducky or Teensys
  • Accessing the camera of the alleged victim

The important thing is that the effect is obvious and makes the problem understandable.

What else do you suggest?
