Request Apps

Got a suggestion for an app that should be portable? Post it here.

BitDefender

I would like to see more development of real-time antivirus/security apps, especially BitDefender Internet Security 2008 (rather than their weak, on demand, portable version).

My kids -bless their hearts- don't virus check files on their USB sticks when loading files at school and bringing the 'gifts' home; so, ClamWin portable won't cut the mustard.

Thanks for your consideration!

Shortcut for apps not in the portableapps directory.

I found an ejectscript and I want to use it, but to have it shown on the menu, I know it has to be in portableapps directory. But it won't work unless if it's in the root directory. I need a shortcut executable that would show up on the menu and then launch the ejectscript. I did search, none of the results were relevant.

Updates please

There are security/stability updates for several software packages available from PartableApps.com, including:

VLC Media Player 0.8.6d
WinSCP 4.0.5
Pidgin 2.3.1
OpenOffice.org 2.3.1

Could you please update these apps as a sort of Christmas gift for all users?

Many thanks in advance.

Keymap changer

Submitted by trigger on December 6, 2007 - 8:40am

This is not really a request to make an application portable, but a request for an entire application.
I use a pretty rare keymap (Swedish Dvorak(Not included in windows by default)), and would like the ability to change to this keymap wherever I go.
Previously I have tried some application named noadmin svorak, but that changed to svorak, which is not the keymap im using, I've also tried putting together a script with autohotkey, I got pretty far but not all the way, and also it's dependant on the keymap the computer allready uses.

THANKS JOHN
