PortableApps.com Platform

The problem I am facing defies logic:

My menu works perfectly on my Vista Laptop, but now all the buttons (video, Music, etc...) freeze when I press them on my XP Desktop!
It was still working fine a week ago, and no changes occurred in the meantime.

I tried reinstalling the menu, I even tried your patch for "below-xp" PCs.

I don't know what to do now, and what makes me annoyed is that I really can't understand the problem.

I love this project, I think its fantastic!
I have use of PC's and MAC's so I am interested to know if there is any possibilty of a MAC portable apps in the future? Camino instead of Firefox etc?

I have often thought about downloading all the apps on the site, and putting them on disk in case they are needed anytime. I have older versions of some of the apps, and I am using them in this way, and they have often proved useful, especially if I need quick acess to a file and I am unable to download an alternative pogram.

Hello,

I have another sandisk flash drive and it is a locker version 2.0, which i want it to pop up a screen like U3 does when you plug it in sort of like a view of portable app(base edition). My question is does portable app(base edition) on the flash drive pop up like that and show you a menu. Also i needed a program that would ask me when i plug in my flash drive for a password before i can use the flash drive. Thanks guys.

Please do reply , as i intend to use mozilla on my workstation
(which by the way i like a lot!!!!)

I've added Foobar to the PAS menu but it also shows the unwise.exe. Does anyone know how I can hide it on the menu? I'm sure it's safe to just delete it but I'm just curious if this is at all possible. Thanks.

I got a new PNY 8gb usb stick so I downloaded the standard version, installed it, and launched it. When it came up at the bottom it said "7.2GB free of 7GB". I suspect maybe its rounding down to 7 because right-clicking and selecting properties for the usb drive it says 7.45gb total. This was a virgin stick and all I installed was the Portable Apps Standard edition. I have a screen shot if you need it.

I'm using computer set to 1280*1024 and the menu has a slight problem.
see the screen shot attached.
(though the X isn't pointing anywhere, its original location (right lower point) does close the menu.

I really like portable apps, but I primarily use Ubuntu 7.10 x386 at home.
When I run the menu it work fine, but once it disappears i cannot find it again. The only way to shut it down is through the System Monitor.

There is an icon for it in the status area, but it is a non-icon; a completely blank space where you can see through the menu bar to the desktop.

Does anyone know how to fix this? or where I can access it?
