Beta 2 is available, link

Beta 2 is available, link updated.
Fixed bugs:
1. Deleted favorites notes continue to appear if "Show All Favorites" is called by hotkey (horstepp2)
2. Right click on "Diary" group at Control Panel does not disable some toolbar buttons/menu items. Pressing these buttons while "Diary" group is selected may result in program crash/improper work (Yasuo Suzuki)

Portable?

So is this the official beta or is this a portable apps version?

official beta from lamer, he

official beta from lamer, he writes the original. I usally turn it into a PAF compliant app. You can test the new beta with the old launcher, there's nothing that's changed.

Just copy the contents of the zip into pnotesportable\app\pnotes

Some antivirus scanners

Some antivirus scanners (Kaspersky, Avira) report that groups.images and smilies.images files in program folder are infected by worm. It's false positive, but to be on the safe side I recompiled both files and uploaded updated package. There are no detects now.
