Excellent question, wrong remark:
I can format the MemoryStick - on Mac OS X - for use on Linux, Macintosh and
Windows. BUT it is formated FAT32 at the moment (least common denominator).
Thanks for the answer,

there is an option to set the execute bit when you mount a FAT partition.
Try doing an 'ls -l' on that app and look at the permissions bits. If it i=
