AIM Portable

Submitted by MonacoMan on March 3, 2007 - 8:25pm

There's this great new Application called AIM Lite (aka AIM ET) available to download at http://x.aim.com/laim/. Its an extremely small file, and has many features of regular AIM (file transfer, IM logging, Buddy List® management, friendly names, basic custom away messages, auto-hyperlinking, filtering, Offline IMs, themes, plugins, and messenging while away with extremely low memory usage. While it wasn't designed to be so, it can be run from USB.

ZUNE program?

Submitted by Dyer13 on March 1, 2007 - 9:13pm

I want to be able to transfer files from school to home and vice versa, but to do that, the zune software must be running to access the zune. I want/need to have the zune software to run on the computers at school, since i cannot install the program due to lack of admin rights.

It really doesn't matter if it leaves registry info behind, because the IT dept at my school is ok with it, since I will be using it in a tech class. They just reformat each computer after every semester anyway.

Ogg Encoder?

I am trying to find a portable ogg encoder application. If it can encode MP3 that is great, but not necessary. Open Source is a must? Anyone?

POCKETBLINDS

PocketBlinds....: Possible Portable App. ?

PocketBlinds is the first free form skinning extension for Windows CE 3.x or later (PocketPC). PocketBlinds allows you to skin the title bar completely and add/position as many buttons as you can fit. Moreover, it is compatible with the WindowBlinds plug-in format allowing users to easily make their own title bar "gadgets" (MP3 players, stock tickers, memory meters, etc.). It's also free. http://www.stardock.com/products/pocketblinds/

Now, note thats for WinCE 3.x; but what if we got them to "expand" to our flashdrives?
