Work with FramaKey on portable apps?

Submitted by twnty3svn on June 19, 2006 - 1:08am

Just found the FramaKey portable apps site, and noticed that they too produce great portable apps. Maybe ppl are already working with FramaKey, but if not maybe this could be something for the future (i know the fact they are french may be a slight barrier in communicaiton). They seem to also produce the some of the same apps, but also others such as PortableInkscape, and Portable7zip to name but a few.

I'm not a developer or anything, just someone who appriciates the work done by everyone here.

Well people I just thought that I would update you on all thats going on as regards to Libertà at the moment,

Sync 2.1 is 95% complete. This new revision will add a number of Firefox cache changing options and a couple of other small enhancements.

Backup 2.0 RC2 is 90% complete. This revision adds the option to append and existing archive, restore an archive and the ability to use the time and date in the file name. It also speeds up the backup process by almost 100%.

I would also like to announce two new programs that have only been under code-names before.

Portable Personal Finance Manager

Submitted by twnty3svn on June 16, 2006 - 12:16pm

I've serached everywhere, this forum, google and a host of other site and cannot find a portable personal finance manager. There is finance software for Palm and Pocket PC, but none (that i can find) for USBs.

AceMoney Lite (http://www.mechcad.net/products/acemoney/) is a good solution, however it is not portable (it creates 26 keys and 52 values). Attempted to make it portable using Deuce's QuickPort NSIS Template v1.1, however i do not have enough knowledge to do so.

Pop-up blocker?

Submitted by Jorlwind on June 15, 2006 - 8:20pm

I hate asking at forum's that i'm not a long-time member, and it seems like i've already done it too much here. I'm just hoping you guys can help.

Basically there's a small story here. My sister's boss is having computer problems, some sort of adware problem(i won't know exactly what i'm dealing with until I get there) but i was sort of drafted against my will into taking a bit of a look at it. (to earn her some good points with her new boss)

there's a small problem though. The computer is suposed to have a bad popup issue. hopefully booting up in safemode will disable them but just in case i was wondering if there was a portable popup blocker?

Password Protect Folders on USBs

Submitted by twnty3svn on June 14, 2006 - 5:12am

I know there has been alot of discussion about file encrypters, however has anyone got any recomendations about any USB Folder Protectors. I have been researching Keynesis Lockngo program, and that seems great to lock down your drive, however i just want to lock certain folders (with out encrypting/or with, but fast access).

Folder Password Expert USB seems good, but trial version dosn't really allow enough options to work with, and Folder Lock, is good, but i'd prefer to have a program with keyboard shortcuts that allow me to unlock folders (similar to Universal Shield).

Is there such
