Elizabeth, It depends on the type of program that you want to install. In some cases, a website called portablefreeware.com will modify an open source program for use on a USB drive. Although I have not used it personally, the program Infran View has some great reviews and is available in a portable version here.

I can’t seem to install programs on a flash drive, and an article in the New York Times (http://www.nytimes.com/2006/06/15/technology/15pogue.html?_r=1&pagewanted=2) seems to confirm that it is true I won’t be able to do that – maybe it’s a PC thing? Annoying, cause this seems like such a good idea for editing my raw image files on the go!

Paul, Right now I have only been able to find USB drives that come with Virus software. Unfortunetly, most virus protection software is so bloated that it is more of a hassle then it is worth. If I find a solution I will let you know. Currently, I am looking for a cheap (read: free) virus scanner that I can plug into our netbook in order to scan a USB drive that has been used in an internet cafe. I will keep you posted.

Love this post Justin! There is a lot of good discussion here that is definitely useful for world traveling while being able to still stay in contact with all your local homies. You’ll have to keep me posted on this as to whether or not you found a USB drive with a built-in virus protector.

Keyloggers….the idea is both evil and fascinating. When you say “secure browsers” are you discussing a specific browser, or simply a browser that is run from the USB drive instead of a workstation at an internet cafe?

if you’re really into techie stuff, you can even use secure browsers in that thumbdrive. you’ll be immune from keyloggers also at internet cafe.

A built in virus check on our USB drives are an excellent idea. I will do a bit of research and post back to here if I find a compact virus scanner worth using.
