I have PC Tools Firewall Plus installed and it won't allow me to access the internet using Firefox Portable or to update ClamWin. I can turn the firewall off and everything works fine, and everything works fine on my PC at my job. I'm sure it's a setting in Firewall Plus I need to correct. Does anyone know what settings within the firewall I need to adjust? I get no logs in the firewall and it doesn't give me any popups asking if I want to allow or disallow anything when I try and update ClamWin or use Firefox Portable. Thanks.

Please don't yell at me. I have searched the forum and read just about everything that I've found but I've yet to really see an answer for my question.

I am just a tad paranoid when it comes to my thumbdrive and portable storage even more so with the increasing size of them. I use and live by TrueCrypt at home but I can't use it at work due to not having admin rights. Does anyone know of any encryption software that works like TrueCrypt without having admin rights? I'd like to be able to place everything in an encrypted file including all of the portable apps and run them from there.

Just interested.

All Icons in the left part of the menu (links to apps) are showing the default windows icons, no matter what machine I run PA at. Is there any solution to this ? System is running XP SP2 German, latest updates.

I found this on Sourceforge.net and it had a .paf before the .exe and I was curious as to why its not listed on this site? All the stuff here has .paf to be compatabile with the launcher that can be found here.

What is the Portable Apps launcher? How does it work?

Thx in advance.

Hi to all,

I've just downloaded PortableApps. My main reason is that i'm looking for some solution to have an installation and to run it on some workstations without administrative rights. Can you please tell me if there is such possibility? I searched for some solution and I see that it is possible to install Photoshop, but I couldn't find anything about Flash.

Thanks

Can You Run the Portable Apps Menu from a cd?
Thanks

we are planning to train a large group of teacher how to use usb drives and portable apps. We want to give each teacher a drive with the programs already on them. Is their any way to do load the programs faster? We have been just coping the contents of one drive onto the next, etc.

Hi,

My System here: Fujitsu-Siemens Scenic N (Mainboard D1961), onboard graphics card (SIS 661FX Rev 01) and size 1600*1200.

When I start Portable Appsthe red Frame is smaller then portable apps is. At the right side and at the bottom of portable Apps I have an 2cm thick line. When I want to close portable Apps I have to click in the black line above the clock (not on the close Bottom). The list of the installed programs ends outside the frame.
