General Discussion

Email archiving has always been a major hassle, and recently there have been some high profile examples of why you shouldn't leave your email on the office computer.

On the home front, I was very pleased to finally get several years worth of old business email off my aging desktop, in the easiest way imaginable.

I wonder if there is any portable application for video chat? Yes, I know that there is no chance that Skype would ever be made portable. But probably there are any alternatives?

Does anybody know how to install the Google plugin for Firefox Portable to enable video in GTalk?

I thought I had figured it out by copying the appropriate dll's into the plugin directory, but it didn't work.

Any ideas?

hi there

i work for a company that has a password on the internet. when attempting to load a page, a password prompt opens up, asking for a user id and password.

some sites work like mapquest.com and wikipedia.org. however, when accessing such websites, the prompt shows up NUMEROUS times (at least 20 times) and after i press "cancel" on these prompts, the loaded page is usually distorted (lacking certain images and frames)

is there anyway to bypass this?

I wish to use Qemu (which is completely portable without KQemu) with a couple OSes I'll install to my Portable HDD (namely WinXP Pro and Knoppix) but, I'm not sure what format I should use with the partitions. I'd also like to be able to load the partitions on my home computer like normal OSes but, I can't figure out what kind of boot manager to use for it.

Seriously, it's pointless and kinda annoying. I already know that my installed applications are portable. Does anyone else agree?

Does anyone know of an Open Source System Utilities application? Something like Advanced SystemCare 3 or TuneUp Utilities.

I'm pretty sure I read this somewhere in the forums a year or two ago. But, thought maybe it was time to ask again. What complications are involved in compressing a .paf format application into a single run file. I would have to believe that it would be much more convenient if apps were written this way if possible. If anyone has any ideas or comments, please post them. Let's really give ThinApp and Xenocode something to talk about!

Hi all

Is there any recommendation for best performace out of a USB? What should the USB be formatted in to use on a Windows box. FAT32? What about allocation units?

I use apps like FileZilla from PA but when they release a new version it tries to install the stand-alone exe not the PA version
Is there any way that the PA runtime can do checks for newer PA optimized versions (or do the PA versions themselves need to be updated to do a different check)
