PortableApps.com provides us with portable versions of many excellent apps. One of these is the extremely popular Firefox 3. The advantage of a portable app is that it stores the configuration information in a local .ini file instead of the computer’s registry so that if we install such an app on a USB pendrive, the settings remain the same even if we use it on different computers.

WinMount is an incredible piece of software not just because it can mount various types of image files (such as .iso, .nrg etc) and archive files (such as .rar, .zip etc) but also because of its native format (.wmt) which works as a persistent ramdrive. This means that when we unmount the ramdrive, the contents are stored in a .wmt file on the hard disk. This allows us to mount the ramdrive again and find all the contents as we had left them.

Apart from using Firefox 3 Portable on our pendrive, we can install it on a WinMount persistent ramdrive (.wmt file). The advantage of doing so it the blazing speeds we would experience by running Firefox 3 off a ramdrive.
