Looking around the database, it seems no-one has submitted a portable DjVu reader. Can you guys please take a look at
WinDjView? It looks portable to me, and I have been able to use it without a hitch on my USB drive.
Thanks!

It stores all of its settings in the registry "HKCU\Software\Andrew Zhezherun\WinDjView\". That makes it non-stealth but not necessarily non-portable (settings aren't portable). Thanks for the find, I've been looking for something like this for a while and will be adding it to my USB drive.

When I open a .djvu document using version 1.0.1.0, my cpu usage goes up to 100% and stays there until I close the document.
Anyone else experiencing this issue?

Old topic update:
WinDjView v2.1 is available from
http://sourceforge.net/projects/windjvi ... jView/2.1/ (no changelog).
[url]http://windjview.sourceforge.net/[/url] author wrote:WinDjView is a fast, compact and powerful DjVu
viewer for Windows with tabbed interface, continuous scrolling and advanced printing options. It uses the free DjVuLibre library to decode DjVu documents. DjVu is a web-centric format and software platform for distributing documents and images.
WinDjView homepage is at
http://windjview.sourceforge.net/, but also no info there. Only an installer package is available for download at the URL above, so I still assume it's not natively portable...
BTW, a Djvu
viewer discussion exists at
http://www.portablefreeware.com/forums/ ... .phpt=7558 and a
yaP launcher config can be had from
http://rolandtoth.hu/yaP/configs/WinDjView.ini; an old
JPE launcher topic is also available at

Nah, I messed around with it briefly but didn't make much headway at least via the Uniextract method. PA's got a version:
http://portableapps.com/apps/office/windjview_portable
Edit: Splitting and re-merging with the other WinDjView thread.
Edit2: There's some nice features built into this. I especially like the invert colors, which is great for printing mostly darkly colored (or black) documents that can otherwise zap a printer cartage. Just make sure to use the "use adjustments for printing". There are also brightness/contrast/gamma controls and a bookmark function.

So there's the changelog I missed -- thanks for filling that in,
smaragdus.
BTW, notable related programs at TPFC are
DjVuToy (
http://www.portablefreeware.com/forums/ ... hp?t=16880), a toolkit to merge, split and analyze DjVu files; the not entirely portable
DjVuLibre (
http://www.portablefreeware.com/?id=1946), a
viewer with PDF conversion capabilities; and
Pdf To Djvu GUI (
http://www.portablefreeware.com/?id=1551), the conversion utility whose official topic sprouted the update above...
STDU Viewer (
http://www.portablefreeware.com/?id=2045) and
Sumatra PDF (
http://www.portablefreeware.com/?id=1193) also have DjVu capability; and for a discussion concerning DjVu viewers and format, check
