Can Athera be made portable?

Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on January 29, 2006 - 10:41pm

I was looking at Athera the Kompany as a possible portable PIM. It looks like a pretty good replacement for MS Outlook, but admit that I don't know much about it.

I appears to be open source with proprietary plug ins.

Any thoughts?

Thanks,

Portable File Indexers - Two Questions

Submitted by jkenton on January 29, 2006 - 9:46am

I've been looking for a portable file indexer for quite a while. When I say indexer, I'm thinking of the functions that Google Desktop, Yahoo Desktop and Copernic Desktop do. I'd like to have a self-contained indexer on my USB drive.

In addition, is there any kind of file indexer that can create an index of removable media on a desktop computer? I have 100+ CDs with data on them, and it'd be great to be able to index them all, and have that index available on my desktop. This program would live on the desktop and accumulate index entries from each of the 100+ CDs.

Are there any such things?

CCleaner

CCleaner is already pretty simple (im my opinion), so I don't think that making it portable would cause some major problems. Browsing on a USB stick with Firefox is already pretty portable, but any leftover temp file/registry entries won't get deleted, so porting CCleaner could help clear those out.

AntiVirus/Firewall for portable drive

Submitted by ASKRRA on January 28, 2006 - 10:04am

Hi all,
I'm looking for a "firewall" to protect my usb drive, from the computer/internet/network/... I don't care about the computer I'm working on. Also I would like it, once I start it up, (autostart.asi / Pstart / manualy ) to protect my usb drive in the background, It does not matter to me if it leaves on the computer regestries (or files...) as long as I can go and plug into anouther coputer and still be protected (once of course the program is started). I have stinger, which scans the drive, but does not protect it.

Any ideas? Anythink like this exist?

eMule or Other Illegal File Download Tool

Submitted by 9100107 on January 27, 2006 - 10:20pm

I would greatly appreciate if somebody could create a eMule portable app (www.emule-project.net). eMule is extremely useful, but if I could bring it to a faster connection - now THAT would be useful! eMule is used like any other file sharing utility - to download files illegally. So please, help create equality (make it so the rich people aren't the only ones that get their programs) and make an eMule portable program.

Registry on the USB Stick

Submitted by gyger on January 27, 2006 - 3:42pm

Hello
I think there should be an App like the U3-Usb Sticks (but no depend on the hardware).
I don't now if this is possible but it would be a large step to Software on USB.
It could block the registry just for the programm you start with this Software and copy the registry entries in an .reg datei.
If this is possible, i think it would be an really good programm.
Thanks.

Please excuse my bad english i'm from Austria
