The short list of apps on my machine that can be moved without being
"installed" would be:
JPSoft's TakeCommand
JPSoft's 4NT
unison
Firefox
Thunderbird
pidgin (formerly known as gaim)
Agent (NNTP and email client)
Foxit (PDF reader)
putty (SSH and telnet client)
FastStone Image Viewer
FastStone Screen Capture
Media Player Classic
ComAgent
imgBurn
QuickPAR
RocketDock
USBDLM
VideoLAN
vncviewer
WinRAR
Aside from Microsoft programs, and programs that include drivers or run
as services, very little actually needs an install.
