AveDesk is a program that will give you the ability to have icons on your desktop that update themselves. Each icon is in fact a "desklet," or a plug-in that can provide a variety of functions. A desklet can be just a regular shortcut, a mail checker, a calendar, a clock, etc. depending on the desklets programmer.
Features a wealth of customization options for displaying desklets.

AveDesk is not freeware, and perhaps does not belong on a list of Portable Freeware.
From the readme: "AveDesk is not freeware, but DONATIONWARE. This means that you are not free to use this application if you wish,
but that you should donate a small amount of money to the AveDesk authors if you like AveDesk and use it frequently.
Donating is not enforced, it's rather a legal trick to make sure no-one runs away with AveDesk for free :-)."
After first removing the semicolons (as listing above), I ran the program. RegShot 1.7 reported 309 keys added and 339 values added to my registry (Win XP sp2). Any ideas???
I don't think that qualifies as "portable"....
AveDesk v1.4 seems to be buggy on modern Windows -- see the dedicated forum at http://www.aqua-soft.org/forum/forum/47-aves-apps/ ...
