Spam on portableapps-specific email address

Submitted by Mr.Prayer on April 21, 2013 - 10:58am

Hello.

Today i received a SPAM email on address i allocated specifically for portableapps.com. Other addresses allocated for other sites didn't get anything (so it wasn't a mass-address attack on my domain). Please check your security logs for userbase leakage.

I will provide *.eml if needed.
Thank you.

DShutdown Portable No Longer Available

Due to the fact that numerous antivirus products label DShutdown as either a potentially unwanted program or malware, we have removed DShutdown Portable from the app store, updater and website. Users regularly had the app removed from their drives when used on various PCs and we had a couple close calls with hosting considering it a virus, so we have made the decision to permanently remove it so it does not otherwise impact our users or our site. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

Submitted by svenvdvlist on April 16, 2013 - 4:42am

I am changing my USB with the PAL. I've got some questions,
Which document gaves the folders their icons?
How can I change the folders like this:
+Libary
| +Documents
| +Pictures
| +Music
| +Videos
Gave theme Dutch Names, and the PAL Menu will still find the folders?

Is it possible to get Ubuntu OS and PortableApps on the same USB Key?

Submitted by Inoxys on April 14, 2013 - 12:34pm

Hi,

I received my beautiful PortableApps USB key.
Is it possible to install Ubuntu OS and PortableApps on the same USB Key?

I wish I could run Ubuntu on any PC or run any Portable App on a Windows OS but with only one USB key. Do you think I can do that. With partitions?

Regards
Inoxys
