This project demonstrates a module called YCCO, which accesses the internet to facilitate up-to-the-minute currency conversions for over 150 world currencies. Forget any other mechanisms you've seen - this is THE module for anyone writing an application which needs to know the latest exchange rates, and that has internet access! This project has code which demonstrates the following: * Getting the HTML content of a website. * Using elemetary string parsing techniques. * Using the registry as a store of data. * Writing functions that accept generic objects as parameters, and decide how to manipulate them accordingly.

Here's a prank to play on other people on your network (with speakers).... Get their machine to speak & say whatever you type into an application on your PC! No OCXs DLLs or other rubbish needed - but the PCs must have internet access. Have fun, and no rude words now!
