Here's a quickie I threw together today. Azureus Vuze won't run on my computer properly without freezing, but I'll get that up once I can be stuffed to hop on my other computer.
You'll need to copy uTorrent.exe over yourself as it is closed source. Installation instructions are enclosed within help.html

Winscp portable

Submitted by skaw_coder on July 20, 2007 - 9:39am

I downloaded the app winscp from http://winscp.net and i made a folder into the portableapps folder and it worked really fine. The applications is stand alone so all information about that is stored into a .ini file in the app folder.

winscp is really useful for network administrators to login everywhere into their machines

Best regards

[Theme] Vista with integrated Eject

Submitted by Keviin_ on July 19, 2007 - 9:21am

This is a replica of the windows vista start menu. I've used xrxca great new PAM mod to integrate the eject function into PAM when this theme is used.

Both theme requires latest version of PAM mod by xrxca.

-Add your own image to the little square at the top by making it 64 x 64 and naming it header.bmp and placing it into the folder where background.jpg and background_top.bmp are.

-For the eject script i recompiled xrxca's eject script to add my own icon. All credits go to xrxca for the eject script.

Toucan 1.1 Pre-Release 1 is now out. There are a number of new features in this release, these include:

-A major refactor of the main functions. Sync has been petty much rewritten from the ground up to make adding new features easier. Backup and Secure have also had some changes, however I have held off the refactor of the GUI until the next release of Toucan for time reasons.

-An incremental option has been added to backup. The first time it is used it will create a complete copy of the source, on subsequent backups it will only backup the changed files.

Hi PortableApps Users,

The other day I decided to create two themes for PortableApps MOD. One for my portable harddisk, WesternDigital Passport II 120GB and one for my USB-stick Apacer Steno. I hope you like them, I do Smile

Have Fun!

Replaced by newer release:
https://portableapps.com/node/8378

I've just posted a test release of Pidgin Portable 2.0.2. Pidgin, formerly known as Gaim, is a multi-protocol instant messaging client that works with AOL, MSN, Yahoo, Google, ICQ, Jabber and other networks all within an easy to use interface. This new test release now fully supports using a CommonFiles\GTK folder (as GIMP does). It also has built-in support for Pidgin preferences paths so your buddy icons and other settings will work as you move PCs.

I only recently decided to create a forum account but i have been following Portable apps from very close by. I want to thank John for his great work to keep this site and the apps up to date! I made my own Portable apps menu inspired by John and an other program (ViStart ).
Anyway enough talking! Below you can find a link to my creation. (It is written with Visual Basic 2005 Express edition)
