With the portable edition of the popular Mozilla Firefox browser, you can install the browser on a USB drive to take with you wherever you go. Any computer with a USB port now provides you access to the settings you are accustomed to when browsing.

Posted on January 21, 2012 - Filed Under Free Software Downloads | 1 Comment
If there is one experience all PC users have in common, it is receiving a system error message at the most inopportune time possible. Windows makes these especially aggravating by not allowing us to copy the text of the error message, meaning we have to retype the entire thing to search the Web for a solution to the problem.
A small, portable download can make it possible to copy error messages. It is appropriately named GetWindowText.
Download GetWindowText to your problem computer, and also to your favorite Flash Drive.
