Speed

I'd like a program that can speed up the computer by using my fast flash drive instead of virtual memory. I know about WinVista's "ReadyBoost" capabilities (like that'll work). The PC's at my school are older than my brother and sister! They run so slow, my toaster oven is faster (okay, i'm not comparing apples to apples, but it does take 10 minutes to have the PC download a picture of toast)! I know this isn't very feasible (I think), but it's worth a shot. Thanks.

Wallpaper Changer

Using a u3 device there is an application that will change your wallpaper when you insert the device and then change it back when you take it out. is it possible to do this using the portable apps suite (Menu, not sure if that's it right name)
Becuase that has always been a pretty usefull utility.

as well as enabling the menu to launch applications upon insertion or along with the menu. i know this is probably possible by editing the Autorun.inf file but i've yet to try and i'm sure it would be usefull for people not as knowlable with computers as the rest of us.

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!
