Yes I'm still offline and as feared they did disconnect my phone, too. However there is some light at the end of the tunnel. I found another flat with DSL available and will move in on saturday the 13th (uh-oh bad omen!?). As far as I know the telecommunication enterprises here in germany it may take until next year to reconnect me to the net

There is another important info for all the VideoDB Users. There seem to be a problem with the IMDB Parser which I can't verify for obvious reasons. However the fellow developers at the Mailinglist seem to have fixed it so grab the updates from the CVS or wait for the next release which may take some time.
