Does anybody know how long it will be before a basic passowrd system is available for the launcher. Thanks, Richard

I'm guessing he wants some

I'm guessing he wants some launcher to have a password built in, not a way to store passwords. Of course, since the original post is so vague (hint hint), I could be wrong too.

Can you be more specific to what you want. So we know how to respond??

He probbley wants something

He probbley wants something like U3's pass function.

That's what I figured

However, before I bought my u3 drive I tried in vain to find a nice portable program that does this. He should probably just by a u3 drive.

Not the best idea

U3's security is via obscurity. (and I'm adding this into the PortableApps.com Menu in the next couple months). I have two U3 drives that I've reset and then been able to pull personal files from. That plus the fact that U3 is being end-of-lifed in about a year.

he means...

password potection in the PAM that would be for the whole drive. (IE, you need to activate PAM, and enter in a password before any of the drive is acsessable.

He said...

"basic passowrd system is available for the launcher" literally

The same we are all expecting... :'(

Every App protected by a password, inside the PAM (?) I think it is possible...

I don't have a signature
Should I have a signature?

If a packet hits a pocket on a socket on a port,
and the bus is interrupted as a very last resort,
and the address of the memory makes your floppy disk abort,
then the socket packet pocket has an error to report Laughing out loud

that and...

anything else that may be on the drive.

Ummm

So do I. And it will be a security through obscurity thing just as the existing solutions from competitors are.
