Music: Psyria
Dennis Lohr 'Psyria' has been making music as a hobby for six years.
he started with an A500 and Protracker 2.3a. Currently, he still creates his music
mainly on the Amiga, but he uses the Digibooster today. He expresses his
enthusiasm about the Digibooster like this: "For all Amigans who make music
as well: have a look at that thing! There probably is no better tracker
for the Amiga!"
Many of his songs (trance, techno, dancefloor, and pop) are available for download
on his website at the title link. The website was entirely reworked lately.

VirusHelp Denmark: Update of xvs.library
Yesterday, an update to the xvs.library was released which can recognize
the trojans "4kIntro Trojan" and Dkg-Blum Trojan. If you're using VirusChecker,
VirusExecutor or VirusZ, make sure to update the library.
Some information on the release:
Name...: xvs.library v33.24
Archive name: xvslibrary.lha
Archiv size: 52.734 Bytes
Date: January 4th, 2001
Programmer: Alex van Niel
News for 33.24:
- 4kIntro Trojan added
Thanks to Ryben Kozlak and Jan Andersen
- Dkg-Blum Trojan added
Thanks to Peter Gordon, Urban Müller and Jan Andersen
NOTE:
This trojan also replaces/deletes or adds a file called asi.library
XVS will not (yet) be able to detect this file because as far as I
could analyze it, it looked like a normal VideoTracker file.
If XVS would have to see this as a virus, more VideoTracker files
will be fake detected. If you have problems or want this added anyway
let me know.
STILL TO DO:
- Add Neurotic Death 2 and Neurotic Death 4. These two linkviruses are
polymorphic, but crash on my system if I try to infect some test files.
It seems that they haven't been spread to the public, I received them
anonymously from the author. So it's not that BIG danger at the moment.
- Try to get and add GlobVec linkvirus. The only one who has it is Heiner
Schneegold (author of VT-Schutz) and VTC Hamburg, but Heiner doesn't
give his permission to the VTC to send me the virus :(

3PMGUI Update
3PMGUI gives the MP2 CLI player MPEGA a small GUI with the features needed most.
Since MPEGA as well as the GUI causes only low CPU load, 3PMGUI most of all suits
very well for Amiga users with slow machines.
New Features:
- drag'n'drop (just drag a MP2/3 file on the GUI to play it)
- Autoplay
- Button graphics can be exchanged / loaded via menu (some 'skins' are already included)
- Other small enhancements

Cult Magazines
Because PC-Joker will be delivered for the last time I want to give you the hint that at
kultpower.de the PowerPlay-archives was expanded very much.
Current state: 281 test results, 113 complete test reports as scans, 35 scanned advertising for games,
57 PowerPlay-covers. You can search through the database of PowerPlay very comfortably.
Besides this you can admire 53 ASM-covers from the current software-market.
So you are right at kultpower.de if you want to indulge in memories and to read test reports of cult
games like Turrican, Monkey Island, Battle Isle or Lemmings.

AmiBench News
Mark 'tecno' Wilson, the maintainer of AmiBench, the website for international
free small ads, reports in his year summary about the adverse conditions capable to make
a webmaster's life really hard, sometimes. AmiBench was hunted by bad luck last year:
scripts which weren't finished; the service provider got hacked; the server played yoyo;
the web account was closed by mistake; no feedback from the readers; ....
I can comprehend well that such conditions are very annoying and motivation goes to zero sometimes.
Give Mark positive feedback to give his motivation a boost. :)
