ICQ Phone is back!

There are many reasons why some people still prefer ICQ2003b over ICQ5.

One of the reasons is that ICQ2003b still has ICQPhone while the newer ICQ clients never had. Well… Yet! – Because It’a back!

The Xtraz Information Center does not mention it yet, but the ICQ Knowledge Base does!

The service is run by IConnectHere.

I have compiled an ICQ Phone slideshow – Check it out! 🙂

Truth or joke?


June has started over here, and it’s still very cold, brrr!

According to My Wishlist, *somebody* bought a Hard Gay version of Kurohige Kiki Ippatsu! I wonder whether this is for real or somebody is playing a trick on me! Infact I do not know anybody from Japan that would do such a present to me!

So, let’s see! =)

I have added it to my wishlist as soon as I saw the video about it on the beconfused blog! 🙂

Johnny Casteaway screensaver


Back in 1992, there was that Johnny Casteaway screensaver. Of a poor fellow stranded on a lonely isle. And it was fun to watch him doing all kinds of funny things!

Unfortuantely I remember that for many of us, it was also just a bit boring, since most of us did not see all the scenes which the screenshot offered or even didn’t know about it!

Recently, I luckily found the Johnny Castaway Homepage which reveals almost all scenes in this great freeware screensaver! They even offer a version for Windows XP for download!!! 🙂

Well done, Sierra! 🙂

Themes and Windows XP X64


Maybe some of you have heard of the uxtheme.dll. That’s the file that adds the abilty to apply nice Windows XP themes. For being able to do that, it has to be replaced with a patched version of the file.

For a long time, there was no patcher for Windows XP X64, yesterday I found that meanwhile the UXTheme MultiPatcher 5.0 can do it.

Interstingly, many websites only refer to the old version 4.0 which is kind of sad since the 5.0 version is surprior.

And it works as you can see at my screenshot showing the Crystal Theme under Windows XP X64. Unfortunately it’s not shipped with version 5.0 of the patcher, so if you want it, email me and I will send the Crystal theme to you! 🙂

EDIT: On some Windows XP 32 bit systems, it will detected as Windows NT. In this case you need to use the version 4.0 of the patcher.

Google Mars!


I found this here in the Everything In Its Place blog.

For all who thought Google Earth was cool with all its improvements over the time, then you missed Google Mars! 🙂

It’s based on Google Maps.

If you want you can see, i.e. check out a 3-D fly-through movie of Valles Marineris made using Google Mars data here.

Also, I found here at the Anything Else blog that Google Earth is planed for Linux too now! 🙂
