Download Portable OpenOffice.org, save it on an iPod, portable hard drive, USB thumbdrive or any other portable media. You can plug it right into any Windows computer and use it just like you would on your own.
Portable OpenOffice.org is a repackaged version of OpenOffice.org designed with portability in mind. It works just like regular OpenOffice.org installed on your computer does, except it allows you to use it on any Windows computer without installing anything. It has all the features of the excellent OpenOffice.org office suite except for the Data application. It also includes some special enhancements to make it work even better from your portable drive
Portable Firefox is a fully functional package of Firefox optimized for use on a USB key drive. It has some specially-selected optimizations to make it perform faster and extend the life of your USB key as well as a specialized launcher that will allow most of your favorite extensions to work as you switch computers. It will also work from a CDRW drive (in packet mode), ZIP drives, external hard drives, some MP3 players, flash RAM cards and more.
This release updates the bundled Mozilla Firefox to 2.0.0.8, fixing some known security issues. The launcher and installer were also updated to add some new features and abilities:
* Automatic Local Homepage Handling – If you use a homepage (or multiple homepages in tabs) on your portable device, Firefox Portable will automatically update them to work as you move between PCs
* Improved Paths Handling – The directory paths in your preferences file are now automatically updated, making it easier to select local directories for downloads. This also allows some non-portable extensions to now work with Firefox Portable (FlashGot, some GreaseMonkey customizations, Sage CSS skins, etc).
* Digital Signatures – The launcher and installer are digitally signed, so you can be sure they’re the official releases and haven’t been modified.
