Does anyone have the paf.exe for the previous version of Pidgin? The new v2.5 has been crashing every time. I've even tried completely deleting and re-installing. Thanks in advance.

Tried to use pidgin 2.5.0. Every time that tries to connect to an account with @hotmail.com crashes and the error it shows says that the error was to a file that begins with msn*, deleted the PAF, downloaded a fresh one, same thing, now downloaded 2.4.3 and hope for the best.

I'm thinking at this point that Pidgin 2.5.0 itself is simply a bit unstable. I've had numerous crashes on a regular local version of 2.5.0 since the upgrade. A couple a day at least. So, if you don't need the updated MSN features or the Gadu Gadu fixes, you may be better off sticking with 2.4.3.

Personally, I may downgrade since I don't use Gadu Gadu and I'm dropping MSN since I get dozens of spam messages a day on it (and everyone I know on MSN also has AOL or GTalk).

i have even just downloaded the puttyportable package again and it is being detected right away. so i'm thinking this is a false positive. i use putty everyday and it wasn't detected yesterday. i tried updating virus definitions but no new ones are available yet. hopefully it will be resolves soon. can the team communicate with CA to expedite getting this resolved? thanks.

I upgraded to PP 2.5.0 and it appears to crash when I mouse over the buddy list. I renamed the installation directory and tried a fresh install with a single AIM account. It crashes too when I mouse over the buddy list. It seems to happen when buddies are moused over in quick succession. Is anyone else having this problem?

Hello,

Starting back a year or so ago, using GAIM portable, I cannot go to invisible mode and chat on msn with anyone. If I type to someone online or offline on msn, I get an error message saying *not allowed while invisible* Using a yahoo account however, allows me to send/receive online/offline messages while in invisible mode.

I downloaded and am using pidgin portable now, and the same thing applies. I can send/receive offline/online messages via yahoo, but not using msn acct.

Is this normal? Any work around?

I use sfx files to "house" my portables, several reason for it including that I share them occassionally and seems silly to have 2 copies on zip (and yes, this is the easiest method for MOST). I've used pidgin portable since it was a beta and even before gaim beta 2 -/= and never an issue.
I have windows vista, the newest pidgin (as of 8/2008) but getting:

error loading pidgin.dll
error: (126) The specified module was not found

This probably means that GTK+ cannot be found

Seems to be similar or same issue as discussed: https://portableapps.com/node/8808

For one of the websites I maintain, I keep the copy of the files on my USB Key. Things work well when I edit the files (typically with Notepad Plus), but I come to a minor annoyance when I want to upload the files. On my home computer, the path is "M:\Documents\Folder\my_files", whereas on my office computer it is "I:\Documents\Folder\my_files".

In both cases, M or I is the letter given to my USB key, which is the same drive where PortableApps.com applications are installed.

I haven't used FileZilla Portable in a while, but just now I wanted to setup the program to use a SOCKS proxy. When I selected Settings from the File menu, I get the following error: XRC resource 'ID_SETTINGS_CONNECTION_FTP' (class 'wxPanel') not found!

I'm pretty sure that in the past, I have used the Settings menu before. I don't know when things changed, but I have upgraded my FileZilla Portable a few times in the last several months. I currently have the latest version.

Hi all,

Have just upgraded my portable apps and added the latest filezilla portable but am having problems. The app just won't start. The flash screen comes up but then nothing else happens. I've got the app on a couple of portable drives and have the same issue on all of them. Anyone else having this issue?

Cheers

Rich

PS - not had any issues with previous versions and/or upgrades. I keep my portable apps pretty well up to date and have not had any other problems with filezilla
