Portable applications are ideal for anyone who uses more than one Windows computer, especially if they don't have privileges to install software. Simply install the program onto a USB pendrive and carry them about with you.
Firefox 3.6 Portable
The major advantage of Firefox Portable is that you can take your bookmarks, add-ons and passwords with you. Although, you should be careful with passwords in case you lose your USB pendrive.
OpenOffice.org Portable
OpenOffice.org is the ideal free alternative to Microsoft Office, offering incredibly similar features and support for all Office file types.
GIMP Portable
The best freeware image editing software is now available as a portable edition.
VLC Media Player Portable
VLC is the media player par excellence as it will play just about all media types without the need to find and install codecs.
Pidgin Portable
Pidgin is an instant messenger that supports AOL, Yahoo, MSN, ICQ, GoogleChat and many more.

Have you ever considered SSuite Office as a free alternative to MS Office?
Their software also doesn't need to run on Java or .NET, like MS Office and so many open source office suites, so it makes their software very small, efficient, and easy to use.

I was not familiar with openoffice, that this also provides the same features the microsoft office is giving us. Thanks for sharing the portable software.
I find the FireFTP extension very handy. For more portable apps you could always look at www.portableapps.com.

I was just talking about Firefox portable in my blog.
Anyway, portable applications I need is just web browser and antivirus.
I don't really find the need for other, at least for time being.
I love GIMP; it is responsible for almost every element of Fact of the Day. It's so fast and feature-rich. I don't know why anyone uses anything else.
