Cue the M:I music
A real life conversation in my cubicle:
Collegue 1: I didn’t open the pdf. If it was “classified”, my hard disk would be scrubbed. I didn’t want to lose my data.
C2: Why would you lose your data if the file was marked secret?
C1: If I open a classified file on my computer, I have to go get my hard disk scrubbed.
C3: Oh, I thought if you open the file, it automatically formats your hard disk. Like in Mission: Impossible.
Me: Yeah, you open the file and it goes “Your hdd will be formatted in 5… 4… 3…”. That will be cool. And so scary. Not to mention, irritating.

How about this? Once the PDF file is opened, a message pops up that reads "Do you want to format your hard disk" with just an OK button below it...
that would be fun and scary and outright sick :)
@Iyer: Yeah, the way he was speaking, we seriously thought that there was some kind of official virus attached to pdf which formatted hdd when the file was opened on unauthorized PCs.
