And we're back to the original question :-)
"I'd like to be able to determine if an app is running from a removable
drive."
Of course, Windows users are IMO more likely to launch the app first,
then the doc. I believe this is because you never know which app will
hijack your file association? Quicktime today or Win MediaPlayer
tomorrow? What version of Pshop will end up winning over TGA files? It's
all much more confusing on PC's.
