Newsrover.com

Hi everything,
I really trying to get ahold of a descent Portable Newsgroup Reader for my Portableapps Suite, at the moment I'd really like to use "newsrover.com"'s one, as I have used it in the past, and found it great to use.

Yet I have no idea on how to make it work indepently on a USB Flash Drive..

Please can anyone help me?

Thanks,
Paul.F

Search for RSSOwl Portable. I don't think Ryan has updated the portable package in a while but it should work for you.

I think he is after an nntp reader, not rss

if so, then off-hand ThunderBird can do it quite passably. Don't know any other portable ones of the top of my head.

NNTP News Reader Correct NOT RSS

Yes thats correct I'm after a newsreader to get working, ideally if possible from the website "newsrover.com"

Its a wonderful program.

Perhaps I should be asking if their is a guide on here on "how to" make a application portable for ones USB Flash Drive?

Is their such a guide? a kinda of "how to do it yourself"

Thanks all.

Try NFReader. Just download

Try NFReader. Just download and extract the .zip file. It's already portable and stores settings to the app directory. I've been using it for quite a while and find it to be the best basic feed reader out there.

Website is in German, but the app is in English.

Download it here: http://www.gaijin.at/dlnfreader.php

Newserover is actually an

Newserover is actually an NNTP client, which is not RSS. However, thunderbird does handle NNTP if I remember correctly (it shows up as a newsgroup).

But there’s no sense crying over every mistake,
You just keep on trying till you run out of cake.
