GVNotifier Alternatives?

I'd somehow downloaded and made GVNotifier run portably by following the instructions on GVNotifier: Dave Amenta.com. However, lately it won't successfully log me in so I've been looking for alternatives.

Has anyone with PA.com built similar PA software; i.e. direct text messaging via a Google Voice IM client??

If so ... can someone point me in the right direction because I can no longer figure out how to make GVNotifier run portably, nor will it log me in successfully.

Thanks!

Quick Access Bar portable?

Can someone make a portable version of Quick Access Bar? Here's the website:

http://quickaccessbar.com/

It was reviewed on GHacks and after trying it out for a few days, I simply loved it. I'm an UNI student so would love it if someone can make this portable, since as you've probably guessed by the fact that i'm here, most of my apps are portable because you can't install apps on UNI computers. I can also use this on the computers at my work as well.

Portable Browsers - Not useful (yet)?

I'm a scholar and we make use of IE8 which is provided for everybody.
What not only I but surely others in a relative situation may find useful is a portable web browser that has the ability to (not really sure what the correct terms are):

- Bypass (?) the security settings and/or programs set by the higher authority to block blacklisted websites such as Facebook, YouTube, etc.

Would like feedback soon, thanks!

Orca Browser

Submitted by MGBoenisch141962 on September 1, 2011 - 3:35pm

I use a portable browser called Orca and like Chrome it has autofill, but Chrome seems to need to be filled out every time you switch from home to laptop to work computers, it wont remember your passwords from computer to computer, even though I use the Portable Apps. With orca it uploads your your paswords everytime you open the browser, so you don't have to worry about forgetting your password. It is available on a USB Version and I installed it on my Portable Hard Drive. Can you create a shortcut to the Portable Apps Menu, or can you guys add theis program to your choices.
