*The portable app is about 5 MB.  It can easily fit on any USB key.  Delete some porn if you have to.

What? It's pretty clear. If you can't get 7-Zip Portable to fit on your USB stick, delete pr0n/important school documents from the stick in order to create more space.

Oh wait...

Yeah, I was gonna point that out, but then I really would be nit-picking. :p

Idk, maybe he thought there was mandatory hidden porn on there he had to delete in order to have room for 7-zip. And if there was a such thing as mandatory hidden porn on a thumb drive, it might be scary to think of what pictures the manufacturer put on there. If this were true yet again, people'd be paying more attention to the names such as A.S.S. (Assistive Secure Storage) and T.I.T.S (Teacher Instructional Technical Storage).

Unfortunately this is an all too classic situation where parents feel themselves "forced" to use technology they really truly don't understand.  Some of them do seek out help from a family friend or something along those lines...I've been called in a few times to help out and try and get everyone sorted out. Kids and parents alike.  Usually I find out that the parents are incredibly concerned about installing any software on their computer but meanwhile their wireless router (if they have one) is set to default with no encryption and they haven't updated Windows since they got their computer.

Not sure if this describes Titans situation but I've run across this allot and unfortunately its never good as it places unfair and unjustified restrictions on the children/child use but leaves the system wide open to attack anyways.  Its very common.  Most of us who are older have our own machines so we forget about some of the restrictions that others deal with.  Hopefully that paints a bit of a picture...its depressing but its true.

Titan...maybe the USB key thing will help you out.  Either you and your parents need to have some serious discussions and possible get them some help or education in some way or you need to think about circumventing without really causing a problem.  The USB key is a great way to do it with setting up mobile applications.  You may also consider doing some reading and really make sure that you and your parents computer is properly protected/updated/secured as usually one situation tends to lead to the other in my experience.

Good luck!

If you're dad works at a hardware company there's a chance that there are a bunch of old PCs lyin' around. Ask him if he can scrounge some parts, and you can make your own PC for cheap or free. At my dad's office (Bell Aliant) they gave him 512 MB PC2100, a 32 GB DeskStar, and two CD burners for free.
