Spybot S&D Permission

Hi Guys

Earlier today I emailed Spybot S&D asking if there had been any progress with the porting of their application and received an email saying it there was already one in the works. They gave me to links, one of which was to https://portableapps.com/node/2110

I saw this was stopped in 2006 so I am writing to see if this amounts to enough permission to allow the launcher to be further developed unto a dev test release after which I would think there would need to be some formal/legal permission given.

The email is below

LaTeX -. TexUSB apps

Submitted by Sir_R on September 21, 2008 - 3:56pm

Hi, all LaTeX fans.

I really don't have the technical expertise so maybe someone else can help me.

All the LaTeX assorted apps in the development area has not been tested for a while. Still I need some portable version of LaTeX. What I have found is the following:

But it is still a bit crude. Maybe someone can make it better?

At least, I would be very greatful.

Good luck

Chrome(ium) Portable!! - Now using Iron

Submitted by quinton on September 18, 2008 - 4:15pm

Hey everyone. I have made a portable version of Google's Chrome. This now uses Iron (http://www.srware.net/en/software_srware_iron.php) instead of Chromium

Instructions:

1. Download from: http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?zfizzzafg3i

2. Extract the contents to your "PortableApps" directory (overwriting everything if you already have Portable Iron)

3. Run "IronPortable.exe". It will download the latest version of Iron from SRWare and install Flash from your computer!

4. (Optional) To update, simply run "Update.exe" in the "IronPortable\Data" directory

Hiho!
Jimmy Neutron asked us to create a simple theme for using with his giant R34 tutorial. No extras, just for modifying the theme.ini easily.
The result is a PTC-branded theme, available in blue and red (yet). The image files can be used for the official PortableApps.com Menu, too.

Description: The Oxygen icon theme for the Xenon portable file manager is a simple, modern and sharp theme which consists of icons from the Oxygen Icon Project. These icons are the default in KDE4. I've posted this icon theme before, but this set contains updated icons and an installer which makes the installation a lot easier.

Hello guys,
after a long period with less spare time (there's a new job and a lot of bureaucracy that will be done) I found some hours for our hobby.
I'm very happy there are so many members like wk (with many innovative ideas) or Jimmy Neutron (who's sending fresh parts of his new big tutorial faster than I can revision them) and all the other people who presents their new themes. It's moving on, there's a fresh smell in the air.
