Opera, Portable

Submitted by cjcoury on July 4, 2011 - 12:21am

Development of Opera Tor was discontinued, but, when using an older version, there is a notice of an upgrade of Opera. Will the newer portable version of Opera be integrated with Tor and Polipo to upgrade Opera Tor?

PA.c Themes Thread V2.0

Submitted by Motosuwa on July 3, 2011 - 3:27pm

Time to start theming, people! Post any themes you have for the PA.c Platform here, and make sure you do it well. For SMA purposes, please insert copyright info into the theme.ini file wherever applicable using semi-colons. If anyone wants an example, just look later on for the Ouendan themes, which will have an example of copyright insertion. But for now, theme away!

Notepad++ Latest version needs a repack

Submitted by JarC on July 1, 2011 - 9:20am

I'm not sure who to report this to.

I've just downloaded and installed the new Notepad++ portable and am afraid it's in need of a repack.

I suddenly had a load of plugins I did not want and on top of that they were all ANSI and I received a msg for just about all of them telling me so and if the plugin should be deleted to prevent the msg from re-appearing in future

Change Chrome Icon

Submitted by BPeddle on June 30, 2011 - 8:07pm

Is there anyway to change the Chrome Icon, Ideally I am going to have 3-4 versions of Chrome Portable running. I do support and have to log in to multiple accounts frequently and they can't be in same browser. Id like to be able to easily identify the instance open by icon.

Thanks!

Forum pagination (page navigation)

This is a simple request. I don't know if anyone else feels the same way, but I'd like to see the pagination for the posts both at the top AND the bottom of the page.
For multipage threads, often the first thing I want to see is the last post posted, or I'll want to browse through all the pages, but that means I need to scroll down to the bottom of the page every time I want to advance to the next page.
Can we have page navigation at the top of the page as well?
Thanks.

Portable Apps on SDHC Card

Submitted by pigphish on June 29, 2011 - 11:17am

I have been successfully using portable apps on a removable sata drive.

However, I tried to migrate to a lexar 133x class 10 sdhc card. It was unusable.

I am curious if others have been successful using PA on an SD card and what their success has been.

I called lexar and they did state it should not be a problem but cautioned that excessive writes would significantly shorten the life of the card.

thanks, George

[Resolved] PortableApps.com red-flagged and blocked by Trend Micro firewall

As of today, it's fixed. Here's the original post, though its contents are now outdated.

Somebody really, really hates PortableApps.com and has used Trend Micro against this site. Trying to access it from work prompts, not the usual work firewall (e.g. if I were to try to access, say, xbox.com), but one from Trend Micro.

The danger of accessing PortableApps.com is High, and the site is classified as a "Disease Vector", I believe it said. It did not make sense. I submitted a correction, saying the status should be Safe, and classified PortableApps.com as "Computers/Internet".

Request uTorrent v1 Installed

Submitted by Micko on June 26, 2011 - 12:06pm

Hi

I would like a copy of the last utorrent portable v1 which is v1.8.5. I downloaded the PA installer from the PA sourceforge archive but the problem is that the installer needs to download from the utorrent server but it downloads v2 instead. Does anybody have an installed portable version of v1.8.5 that they can zip up and put online please ?
