Hello,

During GIMP Portable 2.2.12 multilingual installation I've got a Warning message from my local system virus scanner "AntiVir" that downlad package "GIMP_Portable_2.2.12_multilingual.exe" contain following Trojaner -> TR/Dldr.VB.ags!!!

I deleted this file with AntiVir.

Next I started Gimp without trouble.
So I think and I hope that it works, but I could'nt say it definitely.

Greetingz.

F-Secure has long since fixed the last, Avast-style problem; but this morning it went and "found" a virus in one of the GIMP .exe files:

2006-11-28  06:44:43-04:00  F-Secure Anti-Virus  1.3.6.1.4.1.2213.11.1.12
Malicious code found in file
J:\PORTABLEAPPS\GIMPPORTABLE\APP\GTK\BIN\GSPAWN-WIN32-HELPER.EXE.
 Infection: Trojan-Downloader.Win32.VB.aqs
 Action: The file was renamed.

If this file is the same one used in the non-Portable version of The GIMP, I'm sure it's already been reported...but if not, you'll want to pass word along to F-Secure.

The specific issue :

gimp-2.2.exe - Entry Point Not Found

The procedure entry point libintl_sprintf could not be located in the dynamic link library intl.dll

This comes up as soon as I try to run portable gimp, I get no other errors and nothing pops up on screen, not even the start up image.

I am running Windows XP and just downloaded the file today and installed it to the local hard drive.

Many thanks to John T. Haller for making an efficient, portable version of The GIMP.

I've installed GIMP Portable to my flash drive and everything works except the help file. I'm told it's not installed and I can't seem to find how to rectify that situation. This happens for other apps also. Can anyone help?

Ok, I've searched the site and cannot find it - the .ini file that takes the startup screen off of the GIMP, and therefore speed it up. Please can someone post the link to it?

Thanks

I can't remember where to put user fonts. There is a directory to put fonts to make them accessible portably, but I accidentally deleted that directory. I think the answer is somewhere on gimp.org, but I can't find it. And yes, I did search before posting.

Am I doing something wrong / Am I burning a data CD wrong?

I couple days ago I downloaded Portable GIMP, installed and ran it once on the hard drive (as per the instructions "Running From a CD (GIMP Portable Live)"). But when I went to burn it to CD, there was a complaint about the folder structure being too deep (beyond ~8 deep). Am I doing something wrong in my CD burning? I had Portable GIMP directly in the root folder (not in a Programs subfolder).

The full-fledged GIMP package, with all the plugins and stuff, takes awfully long to load, and most those aren't really usefull for the standard MS Windows plug-and-play user (which I believe to be the target audience for most of the stuff in PortableApps.com). So, why not release a lightweight GIMP package with only the essential plugins and stuff? I tweaked the installation in my pen-drive, and now its load time is pretty decent...

Just to make it clear, I'm not saying the full package should be dumped. I just think having two parallel versions (full/slow-loading and incomplete/not-so-slo

If I place this file GIMPPortable.exe in the root of my USB drive then it returns an error when run:

"H:\GIMPPortable\Data\settings was not found. Please check your configuration."

Once I've created this folder, then it works.

I downloaded the ZIP version of this today.

Please note when creating zip files, you can't have an empty folder within a zip file!

So it probably got left out when you guys made your zip file!

Cheers.
