Miranda Portable launcher remains in process list

I'm currently using Miranda IM Portable v0.6.7 (Unicode), and I've noticed that the launcher (MirandaPortable.exe) remains in the process list even after Miranda has fully loaded. The launcher does disappear from the process list when you exit Miranda but I'm wondering why it remained in the first place. Is this normal behavior? All the other portable apps' launchers exit when the program fully loads, so this seems mighty strange.

Miranda: Protocol Specific Smiley Packs

Submitted by daddy_fizz on February 12, 2007 - 9:49am

I have created and uploaded protocol specific smiley packs (for AIM, MSN, and YAHOO)

to megaupload

I also put the ieview and smileyadd plugins that are needed to use these smileys. They are for the unicode version, if you need/already have the plugins installed just grab the smileys out of emots folder

Pidgin: Getting Error loading gtkgaim.dll

Submitted by koiphish on February 1, 2007 - 6:26am

I just installed the PortableApps Suite 1.0 and patched it to version 1.0.1.

When trying to run Gaim from the menu it gives me an error:

Error loading gtkgaim.dll
Error: (1114) A dynamic link library (DLL) initialization routine failed.

I am running Windows XP Pro, 2.8Ghz P4 with 1gb RAM and a 2.0Gb Sandisk Cruzer Mini usb drive.

I downloaded the latest gaim paf and installed it and still the same message.

Version: Gaim_Portable_2.0_B5_en-us.paf.exe

Pidgin: Installing GAIM-Encryption plugin onto PortaGAIM

Submitted by Serotonin on January 17, 2007 - 5:53pm

Wondering if anyone has had any experience with installing this plugin and could tell me how to do it.

The plugin website is here:
http://gaim-encryption.sourceforge.net/

I have tricked it to extracted the files it would have installed into a folder on my desktop, so I know what it wants to install (if it were not the portable version), but I would like to know if it's possible to use this plugin with PortaGAIM, if anyone knows.

Thanks,
Craig.

Pidgin: Gaim 2.0.0beta 5 crashes on exit

Submitted by CyberJedi on January 14, 2007 - 9:18am

Anyone having a problem with Gaim Portable 2.0.0beta 5 crashing when you go to exit by either directly closing the app or by signing off your accounts, and then exiting?? This happening multiple times.

This just started happening to me yesterday. I haven't made any changes to my O/S (Windows XP Home SP2) or anything for that matter. I run it off my laptop and have been doing so since its inception. I've never had this problem with prior versions of Gaim Portable on my laptop either. I even ran my older version 1.5.0 to make sure it that runs fine.
