PortableApps.com Platform

Hey, I've been trying out the PAM 1.6 beta and I like what I see but I was wondering how it was coming along as far as official release? I AM NOT asking for a timeline. I know better than that. I was looking more for an answer along the lines of "it's about x% done" or "it's in final bugtesting" or "we have 2 or 3 more things we haven't gotten in yet" or something like that. I'm just curious how it's progressing, especially after reading about John's meetings with the different flash drive companies and him saying that they wanted some specific features and such.

Do I un-install PA and re-install after FF?

Otherwise it defaults to IE on the OS - which is probably a screwed-down version of IE6 (remotely).

ie6 clags in the net-nanny (read surveillance and security - it is what it is)
FF does not.
I use an HTML page as my favourites - it is as graphic and informative as my HTML skills allow (eg telphone numbers, colour coding, and more). Which diminshes any advantage of PA.

This follow a thread in the general discussion about safe usage of portable applications.

Since the autorun function is the cause of many infections, I was wondering why the PortableApps platform has one.

It is handy, I agree, but I rather trade ease of use for security. as mentioned on the other thread I use Panda USB vaccin to prevent autorun on external devices to launch. Still, I recently use portable applications and I am glad to have your opinion. Thanks.

Hi, I have read somewhere on this board about a - to be release soon - black theme for the PortableApps platform.

Any news? Thanks

I'm trying to install on on my flash drive thru xp pro and all I get is
H:\PortableApps.com_Suite_Light_1.5.2_en.exe is not a valid Win32 application.
Any help here would be hugely appriciated!

the menu does not resize to fit the app list anymore so i cannot even use the exit. I have a picture to send to anyone who can help me.

thank you

Weirdness, I go to log off from Vista and it brings up error reporting saying PAP requires adobe flash.

WTF is going on dudes, ya gonna fix it or whatt?

What is the status of categories? Seems this has been an ongoing request. Is it in 1.6, or if in 2.0, when is it going to come out?

Hello,
is there a way to control (especially launch apps) from the PA launcher?

Today I found myself in a rather unusual situation.. my mouse was borrowed by a college and since we don't have spare mouses I had to work for some time without a pointer device.

I was able to work without it with most programs, one of the exceptions was PAL - while I could open with Win+P, I was not able to select the App I wonted to launch, or launch any app from the menu.
