Protocol management
As our favourite OS can handle many protocols, it’s not preconfigured to run messenger protocols like ICQ or GTalk. Found out that after creating my netvibes universe 
Solution: copy and paste the code below intro a brand new text document.
REGEDIT4
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\the_protocol]
@="URL:the_protocol Protocol"
"URL Protocol"=""
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\the_protocol\shell]
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\the_protocol\shell\open]
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\the_protocol\shell\open\command]
@="\"C:\\Program Files\\Vendor\\program.exe\" \"%1\""
Then replace the_protocol with the protocol name you want to handle (e.g.: aim for ICQ/AOL, xmpp for GTalk) and on the last row set the path to the program… don’t forget to use double backslashes like here (e.g.: C:\\Program Files\\ICQ6\\ICQ.exe\ for ICQ or C:\\Program Files\\Google\\Google Talk\\googletalk.exe\). Then save the file with .reg extention and open it; it will add a registry entry to handle the protocol.
This is the Windows solution… damn too many Windows users. More explainings and the linux/mac solution here.
