I'm having trouble reading (and posting) comments on news pages due to, I believe, the Digg.com applet which lets you submit the post to Digg or whatever. The page renders up to and including the Facebook Share applet, but it takes forever to load the Digg one. To the tune of 30-60 seconds.

Why has my C drive now been renamed portableapps.com and why does it have a flash drive for an icon? portableapps is malware and it will be reported as such!

First sorry for poor topic.

So the main question is, i'm pretty sure there was such an app for the portable apps but i can't find this app now.

The app was to do technical projects, design you home put there your walls and many other stuffs but i don't remember this app name and i cant find this. Please if you know let mi know how it names but i'm beagin you do not give me response like search in google becouse i don't know how to ask about this app.

Regards Smile

I assume that all the various packages available in portable format are packaged at least with the authors' permission, and probably cooperation. Yet when one goes to the home site for most applications there is no reference to PortableApps anywhere to be seen.

Why do so few authors acknowledge the existence of PortableApps, have links to the PortableApps site, or offer any visible way of downloading the portable rather than installable versions of their products?

Computer Restore and Back-up

Submitted by poundsblake on May 24, 2010 - 1:35pm

Well, I think this is a request and discussion. I have had a computer that has crashed and won't boot-up to the log on screen. I can't find a great back-up to restore it to its better state of condition. I have a Windows XP and this is waht I'm talking about. There should be a auto boot-up for portableapps so you don't have to have your computer fully loaded. So it can perform diagnostic actions. Don't you think? I think... no I know this would be a great accomplishment for someone that knows how to do it. I am not that advanced in my studying yet so.

Hi guys

i found this while trawelling the net 1 day + I am sure it will make some1 happy.
Theres a guy called LocoCobra that has a portable version of MS VPC for download-it requires the user to finish it - but the instructions are clear + easy to follow.

link : http://portable.lococobra.com/
check out his other projects 2 -interresting stuff...

Copy his MS-VPC folder then get a proper copy of MSVPC installer
Simply install MS-VPC 2004/2007 onto ur PC - then copy some files to his MS-VPCfolder + un-install again.Then put it on a flashdisk + test on another PC (its that simple...)
