Betaclock doesn't really work as portable. Why?

http://www.betaclock.com/

I'm trying to make this program portable. I'm creating it using Thinapp using the normal method. When the portable exe is created and run, the actual clock doesn't display. The program runs fine in the background, I know this because if I double-click the exe again, the preferences window pops up and everything is working fine. But the actual clock display in the tray never shows up. i don't know why.

The only thing I know about the program as far as how it works is that it overlays a clock over the normal windows tray clock. I have a feeling that with the portable, the clock is behind the windows clock instead of in front of it, or something like that. Is it not possible to use this program as a portable?

I know the website is extremely minimal, but it's a legit program. The author had a problem with someone ripping off his software and selling it, that's why it's like the way it is. I've written an extensive review and story about it here:
