However, I am wondering what else to include that would be useful and directly executable (without installing anything on the person's computer that I am visiting).
Here's my list so far:
Portable ClamWin (anti-virus)
Portable FileZilla (ftp)
Portable GAIM (IM/chat)
Portable OpenOffice
Portable VLC (media player)
FoxIt Reader 2.0 Beta (PDF viewer)
Startup Control Panel 2.8 (standalone .EXE version)
Ultr@VNC Viewer 1.0.1
CPU-Z 1.3.4.1
XP PowerToy Calculator
GSpot 2.51 (codec identifier)
Scan2PDF
Obviously there is Portable FireFox (I'll wait for the 1.5.0.4 update to appear)
I have a few installable but not executable applications as well (like more XP PowerToys and Ultr@VNC Server).
Any other essential utilities/applications that I am missing (beyond what is listed here and/or here)?
I guess I should choose a CD Burning application for the USB drive. Which is the best of these? (I've never heard of any of them):
* BurnCDCC
* Burrrn - create audio CDs (supports many formats)
* CDBurnerXP Pro
* DeepBurner Portable Edition
* SilentNight Micro CD Burner
* Small CD-Writer
Edit: I found the Wikipedia page after I started to write this.
