Some would argue that it's just the free market doing it's thing, and 
some entrepreneur is cashing in ;D. What's the name of that 
self-contained, 'USB-stick' Thurnderbird and Firefox? I can't think of 
the name right now. It would probably be really easy for Arrakis to add 
this to his project. The one thing that's nice about VPM though is that 
it is cross-platform and contains a few extra security features that 
would be hard for a non-geek to configure. The reason I say this is 
because there are many dedicated freedom activists in the US and around 
the world that are just dying (sometimes literally) for something like 
this, but don't have the technical know-how to self-implement.

Arrakis, do you need help with TorPark? If so, I'd be willing to chip 
in, at least to a degree.
