What are the downsides of UPXing the EXEs?

Im guessing the app menu is UPX'd as its over 1mb when compiled but what about the other apps, Firefox for example can be upx'ed down from 7mb to 3mb. Im guessing there is a reason its left as is, either legal or technical.

Edit: Just found out UPXing an exe is a modification so in the case of FF breaks the license agreement. Understandable.

Anybody got any opinions on the fastest 2GB usb drive out there? I have tried the following:

OCZ Rally2 (faster than the others, no speed demon and design is lacking)

Titanium Cruzer (2nd fastest to Rally2, nice design)

Corsair Voyager (patheticly slow)

Seems I have screwed up. I edited the Autorun file and now eveytime I try to get into the drive I get a message that states it is not formatted and do I want to format. I click No. Is there anyway to get by this? I have tried to use the command prompt to copy the files, but I get an error.

Is there anything I can do, or am I just going to have to bite the bullet and take the loss of the info on the drive?

I looked forward for 2 months for new apps, or an update of some existing apps. E.g. miranda portable has released the new version and thsis happend a few monts ago! Are you planing your big comeback with an beautiful ap as known of you or is this project going to die?? This shouldn't sound like a Reproach, but I was just sadly I heard nothing of new apps for more then 2 months. Come back, please!

I just discovered Mobile Apps
Looks very much like PAM but requires .NET Framework so I couldn't test it.
Are PAM and MobileApps related in some way?

Is There Any Way To Run This On A PSP?

This just started happening. I remove the usb drive per normal, plug it back in later, one or more portable apps are gone, ie, I still see then entry in Pstart, but no icon. I go to explorer to look within the specific app directory for the files, and all the files are gone. This happens randomly and with differing apps. There are no viruses on the usb drive. Thx for any help.

Hello everyone - New PortableApps user here & so far I love it!

I recently saw this article about a program that can vitualize software and I wonder if it is something that might be able to be used portably. Here is the link to the article:

Has anyone else seen this? I think it's cool how it can redirect registry calls to itself and I'm thinking something like this could be really useful. Any thoughts?

Did you realize Limewire & Frostwire are portable straight from the box?
Just copy their installation folders to folders on your USB memory stick.

The only needs are the machine they're running on must have a resent version of JAVA installed.

Only a few minor issues

Start either from the .JAR file (frostwire.jar, limewire.rar.)
Both will have you go thru the options setup every time they are run.

Just be sure in both to point to a location on your stick to download to and goto options in both and have them shutdown immediately and not show a icon in the system tray.
