Only Home and Wifey get space on my desktop :-)
We don't actually have to port anything to VICaR... It does work today...

Instead of using the Widget on the desktop just launch the application from the Menu. Make sure to change the settings to tell MyContacts to redirect international calls to VICaR and you should be on your way (you can even disable VICaR on the VICaR settings so it will stop intercepting your international calls when dialed using any other application).
