Request Apps

I bought a new USB drive recently and it had some security app pre-installed on it. I removed it. But that got me thinking. Was not aware that a autorun.inf would work form a USB drive. SO, is there a simple way to make a autorun.inf that can start up and ask me if I want to launch one of my installed portable apps.

I could probly make somthing using flash that would do this but I would have to update it every time I add a app, with me lacking programing skills, figured there is someone out there that would probably make a app that can scan the portableapps directory after th eusbdrive is inseted and then come up with a menu to launch on of the apps, or browse the drive.

It would be nice to put files on my calc using machines where I don't have install privileges. And I'm 99% sure that it's licensed under the GPL or Lesser GPL.

Has anyone worked on a portable security application for USB drives?

If you have, please get in touch.

thanks

Kazaa lite or a program that works off the same network as kazaa would be a good prable app. Maybe theres already one out there.Thanks

i want portable kmail how can i get it?

Hey,
I found this quick, and very small p2p app the other day, and i thought it'd be perfect as a portable app.

Ares Lite is a lighter version of Ares Galaxy. It has only the basics needed for p2p.

It's very small, only 1.35MB unzipped.

I dunno much about making an app portable, as i've only been on pa.com for a little while, but as i understand it, it needs to be able to run without anything on the computer that isn't there by default. and it can't have any registry entries.

i searched my registry using regedit after installing it to my jumpdrive, and found this entry:

My Computer\HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.arescol


Is there a way to get dvd copying software to copy shop DVD's as a portable app, like 123DVD COPY.

Like 1 click dvd or DVD copy tools.

Is it possible to create a Portable Mozilla Suite like the Firefox or Thunderbird? On the SeaMonkey forum site they say to just use the zip version of either SeaMonkey or the Mozilla Suite, but I do not believe it would work without puting files on the host computer.

Does aneone know how to make a "World Community Grid Agent" portable?

I have been using ThuderBird on my USB fash drive and it has worked great. However, on my computer I run POPFile -- an automatic mail classification tool. It would be great if POPFile was made portable.

You can check out popfile at popfile.sf.net.

Thanks, Evan
