I've always wondered about this.
If someone makes a launcher for a licensed, registered copy of a program what is to stop it from being copied from one flash drive to another and redistributed?
I'm sure folks who just make launchers for closed source programs have this figured out but I was wondering in principal how it works.
I've found a way to make a program that I have portable but I've done it so well that anyone could just copy it and use it. I know that this would be wrong. I'm thinking the only way to do it would be to "lock" the program onto the flash so if it was copied to another media it would not work.
Or do we just trust that a user would not redistribute?

Things have got to get better, they can't get worse, or can they?
For something like this you may want to check out alternatives that are more legal. Try checking out mojopak (sp?) I also think the EULA for Quickbooks states that you are not allowed to modify or redistribute.
Just my look on it though.
I would, but for the fact I don't own a copy of Quickbooks myself. If that isn't a problem, you can contact me from my contact form and you name your price.

Why not just use the PAC or the Portable Application Template to portablize it yourself??
Insert original signature here with Greasemonkey Script.
It Keeps Giving Me An Error...... Sometimes i Should Just Save The NSI File To My Website And Let U All Check It For Error's LOL xD
like on time it told me the 2.5 version of the template had a "splash screen" section wrong.... :|
Na na na, come on!
It probably did, and that's a fairly easy error to fix.

Here you do not need to hire someone here to make a launcher for you (assuming there are some devs here that own a copy of QBs 2K7)
May I suggest you try using GnuCash instead? There is a portable version I believe.
This topic's dead, since I'm doing it for him.

It's 4:32am and it makes sense to me.
Ha!
