Am I right that the Prototshares qt client doens't exist for linux? Then booting from a USB with Linux on it wouldnt be an option...

It works fine on Linux.  You would just need to build your own binary from the git hub source.

Haha I am not a techie guy! Sounds advanced... Can that easily be done?

OK. Thanks! 

Waoh that was accurate

...so I have to replace the originally stored wallet.dat file with the one that was recently used (by the client) every 100 (or less) transactions?

...so storing my wallet.dat file, alongside with an installed client within a Linux environment on a USB Stick, helps me to not get my USB stick infected when I have to use it (in an internet cafe) with maleware infected computers?

So is it true that the wallet.dat file contains your public and your private key as well as the encryption you used? <- I am thinking that because you said the only thing that has to be done is to encrypt wallet (within the client) and then only safe the wallet.dat file. So the encryption must be stored in the wallet.dat file?

Also if I rename the wallet.da file I would have to re-rename it to "wallet.dat" again when I want to do a transaction with it, right?

After having done a transaction there is nothing that changed within the wallet.dat file, right (its still just the public and the private key and the encryption)? So I don't have to replace this wallet.dat file that I just used with the one that I originally made a copy of, right?

My solution would look like this: I have one Computer with a hot wallet for daily transactions. From this wallet I send all the PTS/Coins I want to store to an address that is generated by a client on a computer with a fresh OS (this Computer has no other function; surely maleware free). Then I encrypt this wallet and safe only the wallet.dat file on a USB Stick that is encryped with TrueCrypt.
When I want to use coins I copy the wallet.dat file on the USB stick to the maleware free computer  (to appdata/protoshares) and send my coins either to the hot wallet address or directly to whoever I want to send coins to... Then I erase the wallet.dat file on the maleware free computer again without saving it.

I am pretty sure I doent have maleware on my laptop because no coins have been stolen yet. But by the solution with the additional computer that has a fresh OS I can make sure that I dont copy and maleware onto the USB where I also safe my wallet.dat. Does that make sense ?! 

Any flaws in there?

Other people suggest to install an OS (Linux) on an USB Stick. What advantage would that have?

Ok. Thanks. I'm still wrapping my head around it. My initial question was: Are those 3rd parties more likely to honor PTS or AGS with respect to the structure/qualities of both shares? 

Is it I3's primary goal to have other developers building upon I3 code base? Or will PTS/AGS (both having the same potential here?) primarily be honored because of the attention the new DAC would get from honoring PTS?   

It was said that Angel Shares are less likely to honored by other (than I3) DAC developers than PTS. Why?

But can I receive PTS that I already sent to a PTS address that was generated by the 0.2.0 client with the 0.4.0 client ?? Please can someone look at my post (with the quotes) above. Thanks! I tried both, adding the nodes with and without the "=" and always with the SOCKS proxy unticked.
TBH you have quite a bit a problem here which surely doenst help promoting protoshares/bitshares, especially not if someone is loosing his money this way! I got the client from the official download section of invictus-innovations.com !
