"Portable version" means a version that doesn't leaving any traces, firstly made to be carried and launched anywhere from your usb drive. They (normally) do not leave any trace in the registry/on the computer apart the folder which contains them. There are many other nice use of them...

Most of the portable apps are made by third party people, not the app dev. And of course some bad people make bad portable version which contains crap, and that's one of them i found sadly, it clearly seems it tried to install malware, that's why i talked about making a new thread.

I see. My take is to only go with reputable vendors. I might be old school, but I take the data to the app, not the app to the data.... but everyone has their preferred methods.

If you decide to warn others in another thread, please indicate that you're not looking for a solution, only letting people know that there is an issue. also be clear that you're reference is to a third party "knock off". You shouldn't give Nitro PDF a bad rap based on something that isn't their product.

Personally, I wouldn't bother. I don't see much value or return from posting a new thread. That's yourcall though.

So, if this issue is resolved, please mark the thread as solved.

Thanks,

Bill

Creating a new thread was to provide the file to someone who'd be volunteer to explore it (under vmware or else) and see what crap it contains, therefore i'd be able to remove them all, cause AV/Malware Anti Bytes aren't detecting anything more, yet i'm sure some still left.

If you want to clean up the install
1) 1st use Control Panel -> Features and Programs to uninstall the program.
2) Then you can use a tool such as Revo to clean up

Here' a video tuitorial: Revo Uninstaller Freeware - Uninstall Programs
This short video tutorial explains how to uninstall programs with Revo Uninstaller Freeware that also scans for leftovers after the standard uninstall. Note: If you click the link above the video window, the graphics resolution of the video is much better.

I don't use Revo, so I can't help is you have questions, but WHS knows his stuff - note that there is a text link above the embed.

Anyway, I see that you've mark this solved. I won't be checking this thread in the future.
