 Interesting. So this drive has it's own spec'ed-down OS, or am I
 understanding this wrong?

basically, you get it right. they suggest their own api that replaces registry 
access, plus some means of authenticating the program for accessing its data 
files.

given the fact that malware can quite easily sneak between the app and the U3 
driver/DLL, the resulting security level is doubtful enough for any serious 
application.

even more,
dynamically loading of any driver requires administrator privileges on Windows 
by default, which renders the U3 technology pretty useless by default. how many 
of the public computers (Voyager's target market) do have this default changed? 
judging by other threads, their admins usually change the defaults in the exact 
opposite direction - towards disabling app-run from removable media at all.

to Claud: yes, we've considered U3 about a year ago.

- - -

by the way. the experience i've had in Romania was the best one with public 
computers. as a matter of rule, all of the public computers there did boot from 
the LAN, then filled the HD from an image on the LAN, then booted Windows. they 
didn't disable anything, they just make damn sure that any of the user's 
actions won't affect the next user. very simple and quite straightforward. and 
they did this cleanup right after the user decides to leave, thus not only 
being quickly ready for the next user, but showing this user how traces are 
wiped to keep him/her calm.

some of the clubs did even provide means for uploading the HD image back onto 
the server. offered at a separate price for the permanent users. very few of 
them did so, as very few of them have homogenous hardware.

yes, some custom software is involved in this, as all these steps were fully 
automated.

no problems at all with IMAP and keep messages on server for N days for POP3,

simple filecopying is sufficient for the backup/restoral, but you'll have to

registry - non-harmful things like window positions.

temp files - yes, if content is passed to external apps. and we can't predict

vv actually, the correct saying is exactly the opposite - the AV has
vv a plugin for TB.

 Sorry for not being more precise. I was asking whether the AV has a
 plugin for TB! rather than whether the anti-spam utility has a plugin.

 I did download a trial version of their anti-spam utility, but haven't
 tried it yet.

i tried bitdef9 pro yesterday, it doesn't seem to have a plugin for TB - 
neither antispam, nor AV.

however, some older version did.

haven't yet got a suitable reply from bitdef on this; i can only guess they 
want *direct* feedback from their existing and potential customers.

all in all, i think it worths asking them directly.

actually, the correct saying is exactly the opposite - the AV has a plugin for 
TB. this is because TB is a regular app that has an API that can be published. 
AVs can't quite afford publishing their API, as malware authors can use it and 
claim to be a legitimate app. most AV makers stick to this policy, which seems 
to be quite correct.

just received a response from them, saying that they don't have one (yet?).

no further details that so far, as the discussion is still in progress.

 I  simple  check box and all the the appropriate code is all it takes.

that's what *you* think of.

in reality, you'll be pushed into supporting https and all the PKI-related 
mess, including certificates and their revocation.

then, all sort of content: JavaScript, ActiveX, Java, Shockwave...

then, ...
the bottom line: why don't you people just link to the existing browser and 
let it do all this?. nice. which browser? IE? Mozilla/Firefox? Opera? 
Tomorrow's Next Big Fuzz? all of them?

then, why don't you people just leave the user 2xClick and fire up whichever 
browser there is installed?

 I thought the wireless hot spots (i.e. the ones around the city in Sydney

 I could be wrong, I only looked at it once, came to that conclusion and
 thought I'd look at it later when I worked out how to tunnel pop and smtp
 through http.

if the conclusion is correct, you can look at a software called HTTPORT, which 
has this meaning exactly - a TCP over HTTP type of tunnel.

however, you'll need a server-mode host to keep the other end of the tunnel.
