Hi people, I am looking for some utils that i can run direct from a USB pen drive under Windows 200/XP/(Any other i might find in uni) I want namely an archiver/unarchiver (preferrably with zip/rar), an audio player, antivirus, basic image editor, scientific calculator (preferrably with graph function) and mot importantly a programmers version of notepad (with syntax highlighting etc) - bit like gedit in *nix (if people know it) Sure enough I can find these utils BUT My requirement is that they can be execute from the USB pen drive without need to install and no traces left on the computer used unless I want it to. I am quite happy with command line tools for those that can be (archiver/antivirus). I would be eternally grateful if anyone could point me in the right direction. Or give me some links/names/etc. So far I have gotten as far as finding reshack (that doesnt require installation anyway, hence i didn't note it here.) Thanks Alias: Neo - Why not?

Oh, I forgot to mention data recovery and index.dat editor. (Also to open to suggestions of any I have forgotten.) Alias: Neo - Why not?
