With the Pidgin Portable can you be Masquerade as a sidekick/hiptop user? I know with the Miranda portable you can.
From the Support page: Settings not in Data directory - Currently, FileZilla stores its settings in FileZilla.xml in the filezilla directory as opposed to the settings directory.

There's is an undocumented commandline switch for FileZilla to specify the location of the configuration file: /config
Example: FileZilla.exe /config "c:\foo\bar.xml"

Hi,
I'm using FileZilla Portable 1.4 on USB with Win2k and configured the "File Viewing / Editing" to use Scite Portable. Thanks to your article "FileZilla Portable Support", this was rather easy. Viewing local and remote files works without a problem.
However I noticed, that viewing a remote file seems not to have changed from FileZilla: the file is still downloaded to a windows directory for temporary files (in my case to C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Local Settings\Temp\ ).
Just wanted to let you know FileZilla 3.0 Final is now out. Looking forward to seeing it as FileZilla Portable.
All the portable apps are great. Thanks for the great work!
but using the exact same details on Windows Live/meebo.com allows me to log in.
Unsure if this is issue related to portable version but there's no ticket regarding this issue on Pidgin support page
When I right-click on individual Yahoo users in my Buddy List, the only "Presence Settings" item available is "Appear Permanently Offline". In GAIM it gave me 2 others; "Appear Online" and "Don't Appear Permanently Offline". I've experienced this glitch in both the Pidgin full *and* portable versions. Other than that, Pidgin seems to work pretty much the same as GAIM did. Can anyone offer some insight into this strange situation?
Hi all,
I'm trying to use PidginPortable (from now on "PP") at work to get on the MSN IM network. I know this is possible because Windows Messenger works fine on the work machines, and also I've gotten TrillianAnywhere configured and working too.
I have Pidgin Portable 2.1.1, clean install. When i login to Pidgin its all fine, connections good, messaging is ok. If i full screen Pidgin and minimize it, the window loads back up as it was minimized, but if i close pidgin (X, not right click and Quit), and open it from the tray, pidgin is really small. just thought this was worth mentioning.
is there a "msn now playing" plugin for pidgin? i couldn't find where is it ?
