General Discussion

Okay, I realize that both teamspeak and ventrilo are closed sourced and their license forbids their modifications... but is there anything LIKE them that can or already has been made portable?

I was not sure whether to post this in off topic or or in General discussion feel free to move it though. but I thought since it is about portable apps...
Since I created a version of insanaquarium portable and I am planning to do several other non open source apps (and some open source apps) I was wondering if I could just host the launcher of the app and the source of the launcher and just give a link to download the actual app on sourceforge?
Thanks for any info,

Is this possible? I want to use a San Disk drive with hardware encryption and PStart. The idea is to have PStart in the unsecured section and upon starting PStart, have PStart “initiate” the login to the secured section. Also, any negatives in running either Thunderbird Portable or Firefox Portable in the secured section?
Thanks

Hi developers!

I would like to know if it's allowed to create a collection of my favorite PortableApps from PortableApps.com. I would include them in a zip-archive with a small HTML-documentation and provide them on my homepage.
I think this isn't legal, is it?

thanks stgr

what do the icons beside the topic mean?

It would be great if someone could make a "practice app", that is an app that has already been made portable. It could include a text file with what registry entries it adds and how to make it portable with step by stp directions. It would really help those not-so-sure coders get started!

Figured I'd start a new thread as the old one was getting a little lengthy.
Plus based on NeoRames Post I'm guessing he's gonna be releasing a few new themes soon.
You will need eithe v.60 of my menu or the R31 MOD I posted in the R30 MOD forum for some of these new themes.
Lets try and stick to the same guidelines as the previous forum.
1. Post only a line or two about your theme\themes.
2. To avoid multiple posts if you have multiple themes, link to a page listing your themes.

Okay, so I downloaded a theme and tried to install only to really royally mess up. How do I do it. I know there are instructions on here someplace but I tried to search and came up with nada.

Thanks in advance.

BTW: John, portable apps are AWESOME. I use them almost exclusively between work and home. You got a great thing here.

Hi All,
Newbie here so don't bite too hard:-))
I just wanted to report that the Portable Suite works under Steganos Portalbe Safe.
i.e. I have 4gb USB pen drive and half of it is a secure virtual drive (created beforehand with SPSafe)
I wanted to try first... because what's the point of having half of your office & personal staff in the hands of someone else when the USB gets lost or stolen.

I just learned that you can password protect the files in a zipped folder using Windows XP. Would it be possible to create a single password protected zip folder to place all of the contents of a USB stick in (including the Portable Apps suite) as a means of security?
