Heatseek: The porn browser
There's a lot that the term "porn browser" brings to mind, but Michael Arrington's review of Heatseek is any indication you can add "pretty decent app" to the list. He says Heatseek's developers have "clearly thought this through," and that "every feature is aimed at either making porn consumption easier or making it less likely that others will know what you are up to." Heatseek requires users to enter a password just to access the browser, and all files downloaded are encrypted and can only be accessed within the browser. Files can be organized in playlists and favorite scenes in videos can be bookmarked for quick access. Heatseek is based on Internet Explorer and available for Windows only. There's two version available: a free version and a $19.95 "Gold" version, the distinction being that the Gold version lets you unencrypt files and export them to a folder on your hard drive, plus access to "premium" content. For the conscientious (or paranoid) pornography consumer, Heatseek looks like a pretty good option.

I'd recommend this to friends all the time, I've got a couple of friends dumb enough that they've nearly been fired for using company laptops for porn. Maybe something like this will save me the hassle.
It'd be nice if it ran on a USB drive, or better yet, and entire porn OS on a LiveCD. Now that would work.

Wouldn't touch this with a 10-foot pole. It's based on IE6, which is about as secure as sieve.

It can't be more powerful than Firefox with Extensions and Addons like DownThemAll, Linky or Pornzilla. If you know a little bit, you can keep it secret and store it on an encrypted drive. It is for free and more flexible than any software you can find.
If you are into that stuff... ;-)
