General Discussion

I am currently considering purchasing a new USB flash drive (I currently have a 1GB Memorex Mini TravelDrive U3). I am trying to decide between a 4GB Corsair Flash Voyager GT and 4GB SanDisk Cruzer Titanium. Which will open PortableApps programs faster? Thank you.

What would you guys recommend for a USB Lock/encryption software? I was going to use TrueCrypt until I heard that I need admin rights to decrypt.... out of anything I'd prefer a TrueCrypt that doesn't require admin rights.
But all I need is something so that no one can access my USB drive. Free, please, and able to work on a computer without any admin or whatever rights.

i just saw this over on mikicun and thought you might want to look into it, from the way its worded he seems to be taking credit for your work or (quite possibly) trying to trick someone into getting a trojan using a illegal copy of P.A.M.

[EDIT] whoop's, sorry bout that... [/EDIT]

just thought you ought to know.

*tips hat and walks off*

I thought I create a topic for everybody to post the forums you want unlocked.
This way we don't have to create a new topic for every single one...

i love the suite john built and i use it pretty much everyday, but i recently ran into a problem. i plugged into a computer only to find the usb ports were more or less disabled. it would recognize the drive was there, but wouldnt let any files transfer or pam to start. is there and easy way to beat this, or am i sol?

I want to know what one is recommended. I will be accessing my USB drive mainly from XP computers, and a few W2K every now and then.. (rarely). I have never used Linux and only ever had one Mac, so that is kid of out of the picture. My USB flash drive is 2GB.

So, last year August I got a iRiver T10 1GB. I filled it up quick enough, and was happy that I could have my favourite Portable Apps with me. Around Christmas this year, it broke down, and I had to send it off to get a new one. I got my new one about late February, and once again filled it up with Portable Apps and music. Around early April, it broke down AGAIN. I'm sending it off today.

I was wondering, was it Portable Apps that killed it for what ever reason?

i know its not a big deal, but when you explore to the main jump drive location (ie- F:\) you see the documents folder. i have many other folders in there and sometimes its hard to see the documents folder right away. what is the easiest way to change the folder icon to something like windows my docs folder icon? the portable apps folder has a cool icon, so maybe this is something to be considered in the next release.

It`s a simple editor like the windows standard editor. Very fast and easy to use. Dunno what is under the hood but steganos is a well known corperation.

Well, as some of you may know l have exams coming up shortly (4 weeks time for 4 weeks) and because of this I am going to be cutting back on my Pa.com presence. This is actually a decision that l made some months ago and you may have noticed my post rate dropping. I would still like to release Toucan ASAP and have just sent John an email regarding this, so stay tuned for details, I'll still be around sometimes but I apologise in advance if l don't answer posts very quickly.
