Portable Apps Suite

[nocr]

Want to run some of your favorite Open-Source Applications from your flash drive?

 

www.portableapps.com

 

They have portable versions of many popular apps, including:

 

- OpenOffice.org Portable

- Mozilla Firefox Portable

- Mozilla Thunderbird Portable

- 7-Zip Portable

- ClamWin Portable

- GIMP Portable

- AbiWord Portable

- KeePass Password Safe Portable

- Audacity Portable

- VLC Media Player Portable

- Nvu Portable & KompoZer Portable

- Gaim Portable

- and FileZilla Portable, along with many others.

 

It's all free, too, and you don't have to register to download the software.

 

I have been using this suite on my Flash drive for 3 months now, and It really comes in handy.

Just thought I'd post it here

I think you have forgotten the link...

 

I am a great fan of portable apps and also of stand alone applications which don't require installation.

 

Here are the links to the stand alone applications I have - I presume they are therefore also portable..

Xnews - newsgroup reader (yENC compatable)

Just a word of caution. There are a lot of hacked, unofficial portable apps out there - most don't work or are spyware infected.
