Jdownloader

JDownloader is open source, platform independent and written completely in Java. It simplifies downloading files from One-Click-Hosters like Rapidshare.com or Megaupload.com - not only for users with a premium account but also for users who don't pay. It offers downloading in multiple paralell streams, captcha recognition, automatical file extraction and much more. Of course, JDownloader is absolutely free of charge. Additionally, many “link encryption” sites are supported - so you just paste the “encrypted” links and JD does the rest. JDownloader can import CCF, RSDF and the new DLC files.

I know that you can put Window on your flash drive but how do you do it? Does anyone have a zip file I could use. I have seen this discussed before but the search didn't show me anything.

3D App!

Submitted by stenormen on February 9, 2009 - 2:35pm

I'm here but I'm already loving it. I do a lot of graphics and I saw the gimp on the list which was awesome and I'm totally grabbing that. But i was wondering why isn't Blender on the list. It's a fully functional 3D app that's open source and totally portable. My Blender folder is 57mb but i have lots of extras, the base folder off the Blender website is 33mb. There's no reason not to have it on here.

Portable Spotify?

Submitted by ToJa92 on February 7, 2009 - 5:24pm

Is it illegal according to their EULA to create a portable spotify? Or at least do a launcher? I would be interested in that(either creating or just have it), but I'm unsure if you are allowed or no. Yeah, you can always do one for yourself but if I want to share it... you get the point.

EDIT: I just realized.. Is this the right forum for this question? Else, please feel free to move it.

EDIT#2:

Did some research. Here are the only directories Spotify uses:

%appdata%\Spotify\
HKCU\Software\Spotify
C:\Program\Spotify\
(Swedish windows)
