I find PortableApps suberb og would like to use it instead of U3. but U3 has a password protection option that makes the U3-usb secure until the password has been entered. It's the one and only detail that makes me hesitate and change completely to PortableApps.
Does there exist a similar password protection for the PortableApps?

Although the U3 password protection isn't that safe, a similar thing will be implemented in a future release of the PortableAppsMenu.

Simeon,
I thought that the "future implementation" was going to password protect the PAM, not the drive.

Things have got to get better, they can't get worse, or can they?
I'm not sure.
