IceWeasel

I doubt PortableApps would ever get in trouble for using Firefox's artwork (since it's using the name, too) -- but just in case it might be nice to have this option as well.

"IceWeasel is the GNU version of the Firefox browser. Its main advantage is an ethical one: it is entirely free software. While the source code from the Mozilla project is free software, the binaries that they release include additional non-free software. Also, they distribute non-free software as plug-ins. (IceWeasel does keep the triple licensing used by Firefox to facilitate the reuse of code.)"

Portable accounting app

Submitted by EOBeav on October 9, 2006 - 6:10pm

Is there a decent OS personal accounting app that could be made portable? Something like MSMoney, and it could even be simpler than that. I'm just looking for something that I can take with me to record debit card transactions, checks, deposits, etc..., and keep a running balance. Account categories would also be a nice feature. It would be great to have something like that as a portable app.

Daemon tools

I know there are topics about it , but they are never really awnsered. so , why don't create a portable version of daemon tools ? So we can play our games directly on the guest pc instead of waiting hours until the game is installed ? It must be possible to create something like that ? It musn't be the same of daemon tools of course , just a portable app where you can start iso-images from.

Hi,

i use portableapps a quite short time, but im really exalted. Now im thinking about this freeware file browser. Its a Kind of Norton Commander. I think many people want to use it in Office, but you know how challanging it can be to get these apps installed....

Something like Zend Studio

Submitted by meilon on October 9, 2006 - 7:37am

Hiho!
I like programming with Zend Studio. The FTP support as is in Zend Studio is what I really like. Is there another PHP/HTML/CSS Editing software for portable use with this feature? I could use Notepad and a FTP App (like FileZilla) - download, open, edit, upload. Thats not what I want. DoubleClick on File on ftp, edit it, press save and it is uploaded.

Something like this for portable use available?
