Free Portable Software DOWNLOAD
Get a free application to carry around with you on a portable device and use on any Windows computer. Access your software and personal data just as you would on your own PC, when you unplug the device, none of your personal data is left behind.
What is a portable application ? According to wikipedia, it is a list of software programs that are not required to be "installed" onto a computer's permanent storage device to be executed, and can be stored on removable storage such as a USB flash drive and be used on multiple computers. This should not be confused with software portability, which is the ability for software to be run or compiled with little modification on diverse computing platforms. Most software on this list can be run on multiple computers of the same hardware and operating system platform only.
