How to check if an app if completely stealth?

Submitted by Glitch on May 21, 2007 - 8:02am

Nowadays you can find a lot of portable applications on the web. These application will indeed run from a USB stick but most of them leave (a lot of) traces if they even work at all on PC's without admin rights (like my office PC).

I'm pretty newbish to all this but I am only looking for a way to check if an application is fully stealth or not. I did a search but I'm probably looking with the wrong terms.

Thanx in advance.

and at first I thought I had found a solution to my question, but instead it just confused me further.

Here's the deal:

I would like to partition my 488 mb flash drive into two sections:

Section 1, which is public, (unencrypted, no password needed to access)

and Section 2, which is private, (encrypted and password protected)
