J.D. Spy, Unique, edgy, and something computer junkies could go for

Hello TV!

I found this gem of freeware a year ago. The game is J.D. Spy: you play as some computerish dude who just launches his e-mail client, and lo and behold gets an error message!
And the adventure begins. Upon completion of the first puzzle, you find in the secret world of espionage.

The thing I like about this game the most is that the puzzles are not restricted to within the game itself. Most of the puzzles are solved outside of the game, using tools like search engines, maps, and even the occasional Paint!

There is ONE puzzle that involves Java. It's been awhile since I played, but I didn't know Java at all and I managed to get through it.

So, if you're up to the challenge, give it a try! And remember, the first error message IS a puzzle.

NOTE: Though this game plays in an e-mail client, it is not REAL. You DO NOT use the Internet during this game.
