Armagetron (Game)

Armagetron is a really fun Open Source game. We play 16 player on the School's LAN,
but we have to re-install everytime, it would be great if we could save our playernames, hot keys etc on our thumbdrives.
I don't think there is much (if any) programming needs to be done cause it already allows you to install to a thumbdrive.

Webroot Spy Sweeper

Submitted by Eric Peterson on April 10, 2006 - 9:29am

I have been trying for some time to make Spy Sweeper portable. I use it daily, but keep having to install the app on computers to run it. I have found all the registry entries that it uses, and all the files that are installed. I am also able to create and start the 2 services that are installed, but I still can't get it to work correctly. I was hoping someone else was working on this idea also.
