fireryone Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 I havent personally used Opera, but know a few of you others do. They have released (yes freeware) Opera 9.1 USB Edition: PC Authority rating 4/5 starts Ever wanted to take your favourite web browser on the road, so you can access your preferences, bookmarks and your web history? Portable versions of programs such as Opera have many advantages. You can be sure of keeping bookmarks and emails accessible no matter what computer is being used. This portable version of Opera has the added benefit of not leaving any traces of the internet session on the computer. To do this set the Tools - Preferences- Advanced - History - Disk cache option to 0MB. To get started and to use Opera USB from a USB stick, unzip the ZIP file you download from this site onto a USB key. All the features of Opera are supported including the email client, IRC chat, notes and contacts. http://www.pcauthority.com.au/download/ope...sb-edition.aspx Maybe it old news to some but anyway... http://opera-usb.com/ fireryone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anthony A Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 You're right Anthony, I have firefox on a usb from here (although I use opera on my desktop) http://portableapps.com/ Yep that is where I seen it. This is the direct link to the app http://portableapps.com/apps/internet/firefox_portable I think I will try these two USB versions just for fun. I have tried every imaginable browser already and have 6 installed on all my machines. Does anybody know if you can install skins and extensions on these portable apps? What about updates? Do you just run the browser and check for updates like you do with your installed versions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
