Finding apps

Submitted by kamonw on August 14, 2009 - 8:31am

I just joined Portable apps yesterday and I thought I got to a page that listed thousands of apps. For instance if I click on the games link I get to a page that has around 10 games on it. But I thought that I got to a page yesterday that had several thousand games on it. I can't seem to get to that page again. How do I get there.

FreeOTFE - replacement for TrueCrypt portable?

Submitted by night hawk on August 13, 2009 - 4:16am

Anyone here run FreeOTFE off their flash drive? How does it compare to TC?

It says on the site:

"Highly portable - Not only does FreeOTFE offer "portable mode", eliminating the need for it to be installed before use, it also offers FreeOTFE Explorer - a system which allows FreeOTFE volumes to be accessed not only without installing any software, but also on PCs where no administrator rights are available. This makes it ideal for use (for example) with USB flash drives, and when visiting Internet Cafés (AKA Cybercafés), where PCs are available for use, but only as a "standard" user.

Not a request, I swear!

Anybody seen this? The Staples ad this weekend has it. $25 if you buy a computer, $50 otherwise, comes on a flash drive that says exactly that on it (topic title). Looks generic, but nicer than your average SanDisk Cruzer.

I was just flipping through that, and the Best Buy ad looking at flash drives and portable hard drives wondering when I was going to see a flash drive preloaded with PortableApps stuff, which I know is a ways off, when I saw this.
