What did I do wrong or not do? I put this in my PortableApps folder, is that the desired location? Configuration needed? Tried it with Firefox both, opened and closed. Got the same issue both times.
This will be nice once the bugs are worked out.

Although I would suggest adding in these three lines

#IfWinActive Portableapps Search
Enter::
ControlClick Button1, Portableapps Search

#IfWinActive makes it so that enter will only have an effect if your window is active. when enter is pressed it makes it act like the button was pushed. For people like me that don't use the mouse that often it's kinda a must and makes it feel a little more professional. If you want help maybe making the app accept more advanced parameters feel free to email me jacobm001 @ gmail.com. I'm on IRC too fairly often.

I think a little search plugin in Firefox is more comfortable that an extra search app.

Have a try here:

Can you use a download site other than BOX? I dunno why i always get the same message of "This user is not allowed to use direct links."

Just tried this out for the first time and have to say I think the concept is great and you seem to have executed the idea very well so bravo. I would suggest however further changing the icon as It's still fairly hard to distinguish from the menu icon. Maybe superimpose a little magnifying glass over the PA icon?

The icon on 2.9 is much more easily discerned so so yeah nice = ) A couple more suggestions if I may:

* Propose this to John as being an addon for the main menu? That way when one uses the search function on the menu there is a Search PortableApps.com option in addition to the current options. I think this would require porting the app to Pascal but considering the potential of it I think it would certainly be worth it.

* Code the search function to check if there is a Firefox Portable before launching the search. If there is then utilise this as first option for browser to search before using the hosts default browser. Maybe have this be changeable in an options section with your app. Just noticed you already have this as an option which is great. However I would suggest moving this into an options menu, same with the donate button as a means of cleaning up the main interface.

* Have the option to minimise to tray by default rather than use the hide option. Think of how TaskCoach Portable manages this. Again this option could be changeable from an options menu.

* Maybe have an option to use Chrome Portable (from PortableApps.com) for those who use Chrome.

* Code the Google search function to use the PortableApps.com Start/Google search. This would help raise money for PortableApps.com. Maybe have this again be an option in the proposed options menu to switch between the PA Google and regular Google search? This is just to ensure we give people choice.

* Remove your username from the installer file name and the install folder name. For credit put your by line in an about section. Or to avoid making superfluous menu entries maybe put this in the proposed options section?

Hope this helps.
