James Bond has a theme. "Jaws" has a theme. Even New Year's Eve has a
theme - so why can't you?
Now you can. At AAAThemes, we've got themes for your desktop. Hundreds
of them, from animals and anime to movies and music to sports and
sci-fi, there's a theme that's just right for you.
But if you want real live dancing girls in the background like 007,
you're on your own.

*Today's Gotta-Have: MailWasher
MailWasher is your e-mail inbox solution. Not only does it allow you to
preview multiple accounts and all aspects of your emails before you
download them, it also allows you to delete, and bounce emails back to
the originator as if you didn't exist - great for privacy as the sender
will receive an email to say the address was unknown - just like a
returned email. Using this you will see a large reduction in the amount
of spam and unwanted email you receive over time.
MailWasher is free.

Today's Feature: Who's that Font?
If you've ever seen some text and wondered what font it was in, you were
out of luck unless you happened to have an expert in typefaces on hand.
Now you do. Identifont helps you, well, identify a font it by asking you
a series if simple questions. For example, Does the 'Q' tail cross the
circle? Once you supply a few ansers, the program can easily tell you
what the name of the font it.
