April 2nd, 2009 I recently purchased a small funky rubber USB flash drive from Integral with a view to making it a platform for storing portable applications, i.e., applications that can be executed directly from the drive without installing anything on the host machine. This is especially useful for anti-malware and browser or email apps.
Here’s a few select entries from current list:
- Microsoft Office 2007
- CDex
- Defraggler
- DriverScanner
- DVD Decrypter
- DVD Shrink
- Everest Ultimate
- Filezilla
- Google Chrome
- HDInspector
- ImgBurn
- Mozilla Firefox
- Mozilla Thunderbird
- Notepad++
- ProcessExplorer
- Spybot – Search & Destroy
- TuneUp Utilities 2009
- UltraISO
- VLC Media Player
Anyway, I obtained most of these apps from this site.
I’ve also made the drive bootable with ntpasswd, the Offline NT Password and Registry Editor.
I also use True Crypt to encrypt my flash drives , keeps them nice and safe from prying eyes.
