Zinf

Something like Rhythmbox would be great but too bad it's not ported to Windows.

Zinf then, and you'll have to build the latest version for Windows using MSVC++ apparently. Ah well. VLC crashes every few songs playing Ogg Vorbis.

Digsby

I've searched the forum for a similar topic and found none. Is anyone able to make a portable launcher for Digsby (www.digsby.com)?

It seems as if the developers of Digsby don't mind if people try to run it from thumb drives: http://forum.digsby.com/viewtopic.php?id=114
However it does leave a few (conversation) log files and some dll files on the computer, I'm not sure about registry entries.

Any thoughts?

Halo (This is Legitimate)

Hello, this is my first post, and I've been trying to make my halo portable. Yes, these already is a post like this, but it's pretty much dead and I want to start anew. Now right off the bat here, I'm not trying to get a free game or give one to somebody else. All I'm asking for is help in making a launcher, which isn't illegal. But back to the main point. I've tried the portable apps creator deal, with no avail. I did the scripting right, but all it does is start the exe all by itself individually, which goes on and tells me it needs it system files, even though the files are in with it.

Open Source Alternatives

Many people ask for software on this site that is closed source (Freeware, Shareware, Commercial) and while the software is often the top of the line, Portable Apps cannot support distribution of this kind of software. So it is best to try and find an Open Source alternative for the software.
