Yahoo Messenger 9.0

Yes, YM9 is here.. (or should I say "was here" for more than a year now?)

Oh well, moving on...

Installing YM9 from its home website could be a pain in the neck. Aside from downloading the mini-installer...

...which will, in turn, download the actual installer...
...which is roughly 20MB+ depending on the options you selected...
...which have features you don't need...
...which doesn't actually intuitively show you how to disable these features...
...which will clutter your browser toolbars (at least for me, I consider them clutter)...

I could go on and on but actually my point is just this:

I've uploaded a clean and compact version of the installer, which you can get from this link.

Have fun using YM9!

(Oh Google would really hate me for this! ^__^)

QuickQuarium v1.1

Ever heard of the game Insaniquarium (by PopCap games)? Sure chipped off a hell lot of my time, ^__^.

Long story short, I've coded a helper utility for this game that saves lots of your time and wrist power.

Here's the tool:

QuickQuarium v1.1 (Delphi)



Features
  • Turn 'em off -> I added this feature so you can easily disable ALL the automation features. Press F4 to initiate.
  • Enable Rapid Clicker -> This option, ticked, simulates rapid left-clicking on the mouse cursor position. Handy for collecting shells (VT), killing aliens, and catching coins (Game Mode). Press F1, and the mouse pointer fires automatically, press F1 again to disable. Finally, it won't trigger unless you're playing the game.
  • Random Clicker -> What this does is click randomly on the screen faster than you can read "this". A great replacement for clyde and stinky. Run this with Seymour and you'd almost never miss a single shell in VT. Activate/deactivate by pressing F2.
  • Auto Feeder -> Feeds your fish may they prefer guppies, pills or anything. Press F5 to autofeed, press again to stop feeding.
  • Fish Trainer -> This feature steps back the system date as indicated in the "# of Days to train" label then advances the system date a day forward automatically in minute intervals while feeding your fish; it then returns the system's original date after training. The autofeeder/randomclicker is enabled when you click this feature to feed your fish as they time-travel. Watch them grow in 7 minutes or so. :)
