Internet Apps Support

I know there was a last-year thread about this, but I can't get around it:

I have set my XP default browser to Firefox portable using the DefaultBrowser utility. For example, at the Windows Run dialog, entering "http://www.google.com" opens a new tab in FF Portable. FF Portable is running (and registered through DefaultBrowser) from a local drive (not usb thumb etc...).

Still, clicking on links in Pidgin Portable's chat windows, IE opens up....

How can I force Pidgin Portable to run system's default browser, or at least set it to run a specific one?

Any help appreciated

I had an old version of Filezilla 3.0.11.1 installed on my thumb drive and when I installed version 3.2.6.1, it made a separate entry. Every other program just updated the existing install, but this upgrade left me with 2 Filezilla menu entry. The old may not even be installed anymore, but how do I remove the duplicate entry.

I don't want to muck around where I don't know what I am doing, so I look to the experts.

Thanks.

This forum has quite a few Windows registry issues. It may be possible to avoid storing settings in the registry (thus eliminating the need for the .reg file workaround) without modifying the PuTTY source code. The trick is to donate the modified source code to the developers of PuTTY and have them make it a part of their next release.

Due to the existing bugs, I was waiting for the new update (2009-11-09 - FileZilla Client 3.3.0 released) which recently came out. Any ideas if this fixes the on going bugs in the portable version?

I wanted to have Pidgin in my language. So I downloaded all languages packs and then deleted languages I didn't need. But when I run Pidgin it is still in English. The advise how to set a certain language didn't help me:

"head to PidginPortable\Data\settings directory and open up PidginPortableSettings.ini. In there, set PidginLANG equal to the language you wish to use..."

Because I have nothing in the Data folder...

Can you help me, please?

I upgraded to pidgin 2.6.3 from 2.5 and suddenly found half of my yahoo contacts are no longer on the server list. What is going on? And some of the deleted contacts were just online an hour ago

How do I install themes in Miranda IM Portable v0.8.8 ?

I created the folder ...\Apps\miranda\Skins and put it to download the theme, but in options - customize i can't find "skins" for change.

I have a suggested change for the Pidgin Portable installer. Can the installer be modified not to remove non-pidgin related assemblies? The Facebook plug-in requires libjson-glib-1.0.dll which gets removed during the upgrade process.

Thanks

When exitting FileZillaPortable 3.2.8.1 (and older versions) it does not shut down properly (keeps running as it can be seen in the Task Manager), which prevents the user from "securely removing the device", unless the process is manually terminated via the Task Manager or similar programs.
