General Discussion

Is there a discussion thread about how to defend against evil computers that try to steal the data off your flash drive? Such as:

1) Does ClamAV consider USB Dumper, hacksaw & switchblade a threat?

2) Is putting eicar.com on your flash drive (to mess with their AV program) too cruel?

3) Is there a standardized method of crypto for both files & PGP keyrings? And does that work against things like USB Dumper, hacksaw & switchblade; or do they just re-read the decrypted versions?

Thanks,

Lance

It would be more advanced if there was a portableApp that created new portableApps with the following information:

ICO file
EXE file
JPG file (Startup)
INI file's

If theres any more files that are missing or wrong please reply.

Hi all,

I looked around a bit (pun intended) for a torrent to download the suite, but didn't find one; it would save you a fair amount of bandwidth.

Lite suite is from May 2007, standard (?) suite v 1.0 from November *2006*.

You guys don't want your reputation at jeopardy, I know.....

I dunno who submits to download sites, but these need updating.
(or removal? I was rather surprised to see the suites there, I thought this is the official download site.)

Hey all,
I was just browsing on Yahoo and i came across this article. It mentions PortableApps and points to the site.

I guess we are going to get more of those fun App Requests!!!

Keep up the great work all.

Happy New Year

hi,

I need to use a larger usb key so I tried to move the entire content (PortableApps, Documents and files) just copying it from the Cruzer 1Gb to the Kingston 2Gb but something doesn't work.
I can't associate OpenOffice to its files, nor by "open with".

can you help me, please?
Do I need to reinstall PortableApps?
thank you

When i installed de Portable applications Suite, the programme changed the name of my memstick to "PortableApps", I tried to chamge the name, but for my suprised the name is locked, and it is difficult to distinguish between other memsticks that have the suite installed.
How can I change the name of the memstick again ????( Kingston Data Traveller 2.0 )

thanks for your time

Pedro

Could you make an PortableApps Suite which can be more... customiable.
Maybe so that you can make Pictures and compress them in a file which can be read by the suite!

It would be really cool.

This as always been a problem. Someone creates an account and creates a thread saying: "Gimme this. How do I do that?".

This is a very discussed topic, meanwhile, nobody has come to a solution about this. I think we should create a definitive solution, not just for the Request Apps Forum, but for other Forums too.

We should reduce the amount of commonly repeated threads significantly!

Okay first of all I am a n00b so try not to get frustrated with me. I'm trying to install the Suite Standard Edition on my 2GB Dane-Elec USB drive. The executable file opens and the program runs. I select the drive and click install and the progress windows pops up. After ten minutes there is still no progress.

Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks in advance everyone!
