PINs Portable - Getting Started

So, I have a piece of OSS, I've been able to make run off a removable disk.
The software is called PINs. It's another password-wallet, like KeePass.

I installed NSISPortable from the test apps. I zipped the proggie, and chose the option to make an installer from a zip. I renamed it PINsPortable.paf.exe.

http://code.google.com/p/pinsportable/

I'm pretty sure from the documentation that I'm supposed to reorganize the files somehow. I'm not understanding the documentation. Please help get me started.

Please remove the link until the following error is fixed.

You have several passwords that need to be removed. They look like they link to fairly important data (like your visa). I like the app send me an email at jacobm001 @ gmail . com

Done

Done,

undrline, if Jacob is correct about what he said you should change all the passwords that were in the file Immediately.

There's no way of knowing how many people could have downloaded that file.

Thanks Jacob

Not a Problem!

Geez, it's been so long since I posted this, you scared the crap out of me. I changed half a dozen passwords of mine, then something occurred to me. I found my old file, still on the server, and installed it. Those passwords are the default examples that come with the original proggie! If you looked at the password, it said 1234. I hope no one would choose credentials John, 1234 as their VISA log in.

I'd still like to work on this if someone could help out. Can I re-post the link?

If you're happy with it

then you can put it back.

Jacob and Tim were doing it entirely for your safety. If you're convinced that it is no security problem, you may put the link back.

Feel free.

I'm sorry I wasn't sure if they were yours or not. But I'm a computer tech and get paid for it and I can't tell you how many retarded passwords I have seen. And yes I do know someone who's old password for their Visa was 1111.

Thanks

Thanks. I guess I've done some dumb things in my life, but I'm glad that wasn't one of them. I've updated it.
