03:38:05 <how2java> hello everyone
03:38:20 <how2java> anybody know whats the constant for system32?
03:39:21 <how2java> im a little confuse here
03:39:23 <how2java> $WINDIR The Windows directory (usually C:\Windows or C:\WinNT but detected at runtime). $SYSDIR The Windows system directory (usually C:\Windows\System or C:\WinNT\System32 but detected at runtime).
03:39:54 <how2java> should i use $WINDIR/system32 or $SYSDIR?
03:39:58 <ChrisMorgan> %WINDIR%\system32 is the environment variable method for it.
03:40:03 <ChrisMorgan> What are you using it in?
03:40:28 <how2java> when i installed navicat
03:40:42 <ChrisMorgan> I have no idea about navicat. Never heard of it.
03:40:53 <how2java> i found out that it installed something in system32
03:40:55 <ChrisMorgan> Seems to me it's not really relevant to PortableApps.com either...
03:41:08 <ChrisMorgan> You're trying to make it portable?
03:41:12 <how2java> yes
03:41:40 <ChrisMorgan> So where are you trying to use $WINDIR/$SYSDIR? NSIS code?

09:31:07 <pa_0631> hello
09:31:20 <ChrisMorgan> Hello, pa_0631! Can we help you with anything?
09:31:25 <pa_0631> i have qa virus on my portable app
09:31:51 <pa_0631> ???
09:32:01 <ChrisMorgan> What do you mean?
09:32:25 <ChrisMorgan> Has your drive been infected with a virus, or are you saying your virus checker has said there's a virus in some of our software?
09:32:28 <pa_0631> i have a virus on my usb keys where i run portable app
09:32:50 <pa_0631> drive infected
09:33:05 <pa_0631> antivirus try to remove it but no luck
09:33:17 <ChrisMorgan> What antivirus software are you using?
09:33:59 <pa_0631> the only one who see it is symentec
09:34:14 <ChrisMorgan> What's the virus it's claiming, and what's it in?
09:34:43 <pa_0631> just a sec
09:34:51 <pa_0631> find the excat details
09:36:11 <pa_0631> :\autorun.inf
09:36:29 <ChrisMorgan> Could you please list the contents of that file?
09:37:28 <ChrisMorgan> It should be like [AutoRun] then the next line Open=StartPortableApps.exe, then Action, Icon and Label
09:37:50 <pa_0631> BV:AutoRun-S [Wrm]
09:38:34 <ChrisMorgan> Try opening the file in Notepad or another text editor (if it hasn't stolen it away somewhere) and see if it's got those sorts of contents
09:38:42 <ChrisMorgan> If not, it's been hijacked by something.
09:39:32 <ChrisMorgan> If you have your drive set to really auto-autorun, then you can stop the virus from starting when you put your drive in (if it's not already running on the host computer) by holding down the left shift key when you put the drive in.
09:40:25 <pa_0631> not able to open it in note pad
09:40:34 <ChrisMorgan> Why not?
09:41:11 <pa_0631> access denied
09:41:26 <ChrisMorgan> Hmm... it's not drive C: is it?
09:41:56 <pa_0631> no is D
09:42:11 <ChrisMorgan> Is that your Windows drive or a USB drive?
09:42:19 <pa_0631> usb drive
09:42:46 <ChrisMorgan> In that case I suspect either Symantec or a virus is stopping you accessing it
09:43:12 <pa_0631> ok
09:43:20 <ChrisMorgan> I'm afraid I can't really advise you any further, I'm not sure what you should do.
09:43:31 <pa_0631> ok
09:43:36 <ChrisMorgan> Beyond suggesting that you restart with your disk out and try and run a full system scan in Symantec
09:43:51 <pa_0631> ok thank
09:43:56 <ChrisMorgan> You could also see if there's some way you can do a boot-time scan with it (I'm pretty sure there is)
09:44:06 <ChrisMorgan> If you can arrange a boot-time scan, leave your disk in
09:44:13 <pa_0631> ok thanks for your help
09:44:23 <ChrisMorgan> You're welcome :-)
09:44:26 <pa_0631> love the portable apps
09:44:33 <ChrisMorgan> Good :-)

18:02:00 <pa_0001> Any plans for the PAP in 2010?
18:06:47 *** purple has quit ("Only two things are definite, Death and Format C:\")
18:07:35 <pa_0001> Is there a way to make it so more than one person can use one PAP with each person having different apps?
18:08:07 <pa_0001> Like a login thing
18:10:17 <pa_0001> oh and I'm having issues with the PAP on windows 7
18:11:48 <Computator> ummm, there might be something I don't know about but there isn't a multiuser thing for the PAP
18:12:21 <pa_0001> But are you guys planning on making or something?
18:12:44 <MaienM|Sleep> I don't think so
18:12:50 <Computator> you might be able to manually make two seperate installs in different directories and start them manually
18:13:03 <MaienM|Sleep> the purpose of the PAP is to have a easy way to keep your programs with you at all times
18:13:43 <MaienM|Sleep> however, in the next release categories will be supported
18:13:50 <pa_0001> :D
18:13:57 <pa_0001> That'll be helpful'
18:14:03 <MaienM|Sleep> so you could make two categories, "User1" and "User2" for example and use that
18:14:31 <pa_0001> Thx!

18:19:34 <MaienM> however, that doesn't include category support
18:20:02 <pa_0001> Ah, ok. I'm still gonna try it out though
18:20:49 <Computator> how do you sign in to this IRC server using a account like most of the nicks on here are? just use your portableapps user and pass?
18:21:20 <Gizmokid2005> Computator: this is completely separate from the site
18:21:30 <Gizmokid2005> you can use whatever nick/pass you want.
18:21:34 <Computator> oh ok
18:22:20 <Computator> I just mean like yours says "signed on as account Gizmokid2005" in whois...
18:22:24 <Computator> mine doesn't
18:22:33 <Gizmokid2005> Computator: that's because you have to register your username on here
18:22:41 <pa_0001> and then identify
18:22:42 <Computator> oh ok
