@Timelord2067 I just read over your portableApps description. That's an excellent idea! Just put it on a jump drive and plug it in Many thanks for your positive feedback, just one point, What about the files written to the C:\Users\(blah)\AppData\Roaming\Sexcoin directory? The subtlety of PortableApps is they are written to a directory on the external drive (which means the PA version needs to be configured to ensure these files aren't left behind on a host computer - you don't want to leave part of your wallet/earnings on someone else's computer) Regards, That's really no problem, and honestly it can be done with the present client, using a 'crafted' blahcoin.conf and 'crafted' shortcut. One of the things that has always annoyed me about the coin client is that lack of 'pathing' flexibility out of the box. I think one of the reasons for this is that, in Linux, all of that stuff is very easy. Take this for instance: sexcoin-qt -conf=`pwd`/sexcoin.conf
Then in sexcoin.conf you set the datadir and bingo, instant jump drive. Windows is just different. You don't want to open a command prompt to start an app. You don't even want to edit a shortcut. The 'windows' way is to open a config dialog, or set your pathing on installation. Then there's the issue of needing write access. IMHO, Windows has made their OS so secure that only malicious software can do anything on it anymore. So, defaulting all the pathing to %AppData%\Roaming\% is the best way to INSURE that your released app with have the access it requires. This is something we plan to address. That brings up the next point: you don't want to leave part of your wallet/earnings on someone else's computer
Windows uses its swap file extensively, and this is the part that is a real challenge. How can you be SURE that unlocked wallet data isn't left in the swap area...in plain text? Its not TOO impactful on your own PC, but whoring that jump drive all over internet cafes is another story. I don't know the answer to that issue at the moment, it warrants more investigation. But seriously, the idea is worth the investigation and effort!

But my idea of a portable app would be to store the client on the USB drive that gets executed on plug in. The USB drive would also store the "db", peers data, etc. I believe QT has to call the windows API GetSpecialFolderPath. Just search the code and replace. Also do not write into the LOG by default or you'll run out of space rather fast.

Hmmmm Thinking of doing a few things, because at this point, I'm no technical help at all. Except with testing. Just have the miners site to tweak a bit and we won't be going live until it can't be confused with the official site.. I was thinking..
The "Zombie bonus" isn't being laid to rest as quickly as it once was.. might open up the movie quote part to just anybody.
and..
I've been hot to trot on a SXC motto contest since day one... we don't need it, and it might attract the odd troll, but I think it would be a hell of a lot of fun... so much so, I'm willing to put 6969 SXC on the table.. most popular motto wins by public vote, ends when it starts to run out of steam..
(Yes , I have no life) ..

I'm going there now with 2 meg I need all the coins I can get as I am giving 1 block each to 1000 people you get the same coins regardless if solo or pooling. Its just for people with 4 or 500 k they'll see a block every few hours and end up giving up. Working pools are essential on a coin success

Working pools are essential on a coin success totally not true you end up with less coins overall I have tested it many times with many coins and its a lot easyer to solo mine on multiple rigs as I already have it all set just 1 click Right now it only takes 40m to find a block with 500kh so its not to bad

At the current hash it will take you over 8 days to get those 1000 blocks. So good luck and hope no more miners join in attracted by the hash rise. I'll keep the p2p pool running to attract more miners
