Hi Tom, I just tried it and it works as expected. As soon as I click on the Espionage icon in Launchpad, Launchpad goes away and Espionage window comes in front, I enter the password and all is fine.
I tried to launch Launchpad from the Dock, Alfred and Finder, it always works in the same way.

Can you please try to log in with another account (guest for example) onto your Mac and try to reproduce it there?

Thanks
Zsolt

Hi Bruce, thanks for your input.
I assume even if you manage to corrupt Espionage your data will not be at peril, because the data is stored in encrypted disk images, which are in fact completely stand alone entity. Even if you uninstall Espionage the data will still be there.

So in case you end up with non functioning Espionage, uninstall it by deleting these files:
/Users/[your username]/Library/Application Support/Espionage
/Users/[your username]/Library/LaunchAgents/com.taoeffect.EspionageHelper.plist
/System/Library/Extensions/iSpy.kext
/Library/iSpy
/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.taoeffect.ispyd.plist
/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.taoeffect.Espionage.plist (might not exist)
/Library/PrivilegedHelperTools/com.taoeffect.Espionage (might not exist)

restart your Mac, install Espionage again and just drag the protected folders back to Espionage, it will ask you for each folders password, but after that you are back in game.

Still as this is kind of hacking, you are indeed doing it on your own risk.

This topic is also open as support ticket, once we conclude what the problem and solution was, I will post it here.

Dear Angel09, if there is anything Espionage related I can help you with, just let me know.
Cheers,
Zsolt

Hi Bruce,
I tested the Growl 1.3.3 for you and no luck.
Here is what I did.
I had Growl 1.2.2, switched Espionage to use it, and it worked fine.
Then Downloaded Growl 1.3.x (the current version), and uninstalled the Legacy version 1.2.2 as Growl suggested.
Rebooted the Mac.
I tried Espionage, there were no notifications showing up.
I followed the instructions written here http://www.ninjadesk.com/featured/fixin ... os-x-lion/ to upgrade the Growl Framework (I find it strange that the link points to SDK 1.2.2, though).
Once I replaced the Growl Framework folder I started Espionage once again, still no notifications.
I rebooted the Mac, started Espionage again, now it uses build in Espionage Notifications, in spite Growl notification set in the Espionage Preferences.
Unless you have some other way to upgrade the Framework, or a link to a different SDK, this would be it.

Let me know if you have further questions.

Hello Texas-al
Normally you will be protecting folders inside your user folder. And the folders inside your user folder are by default not readable to other users.
So it depends on your folder permission settings and where is the folder which you protected.
However, even if the folder itself is readable, your protected folder should be in an encrypted disk image which has a password on its own. So even if the other users could see your encrypted disk image, without a password she/he cannot open it.

If this does not answer your question, then please specify the path in which your protected folder is placed and then I can give you further instructions what do I need to understand the situation.

Cheers,
Zsolt

Hello Butterfly0013,
Thanks for your input.
I tested this too, and I'm not sure why it was originally claimed that this is not possible.
As far as I know, it is not even needed to put the folder on the desktop, you can leave it where it is i.e in ~/Library/Mail
Cheers
Zsolt
