So how about PortaXplorer? That's avail.admin wrote:Agreed. A pity because Portable Explorer is so natural it's almost irresistable.

That was the first name I checked. It's tempting...Jibz wrote:tafkax.com is available btw

Re: TAFKAX
It's also phonetically identical to the English 'slang' word for exactly the same thing . . . sounds bad 
Re: TAFKAX
In Dutch, the second half has the same problem as in German. The first half is literally taken neutral, but a slight phonetic variation not so much. In all, not really great as regards Dutch.admin wrote:That was the first name I checked. It's tempting...Jibz wrote:tafkax.com is available btw

Speaking of scatology, when reading PortaXplorer the next thing heard in my head was PortaPotti®.
Re: TAFKAX
I think made up names work well for companies and web services. Having a file manager called Shoozim or Frubber or similar just seems .. wrong.
But hey, might just be me -- it works for some software, Skype comes to mind.
Btw, just checked, Shoozim is still available, Frubber is taken, sorry
