You can go there and it gives you a link to the website where you can download it. No nonsense, just a .zip package and one exe.

Miranda Instant Messenger is a good alternative for those who want multiple instant messaging protocols, but still want to stay small in size. Miranda is around 2.5MB, which is much smaller than Gaim. It does all the major protocols (AIM/ICQ, MSN, Yahoo, etc. It is extensible via plugins. You can download a .zip of the program that is already portable.

Hello,

it would be nice to synchronize the clock on every computer.
The Windows time service is scriptable, but it does not work with proxies or firewalls blocking port 123.

So is there a small time sync utility without installation with proxy / firewall settings or even recognition?
With (updateable) Time Server list for different countries?
And maybe useable from the command line?

Best regards,
René

I have wrote extensively about Spread32, but it doesn't work with Excel, so I am putting out a call for someone to either find or create a spreadsheet with Excel read/write and some functionality. It shouldn't be bloated with stuff I don't need, it should be lean. Other people have requested this, so I think that there is really a genuine interest in this. Reply with ideas.
