The purist vote
I'm a purist. The primary reason is because application portability is not rocket science. Either an application will run without leaving any traces on the host system or it doesn't...period. I'm asked sometimes, "Why be so adamant?" My answer to that is because achieving portability is fa...

OB1 [OffByOne] Browser
Already in the database, under Web Browsers. I would have suggested searching first, but again the search engine wouldn't have found it...even searching for "Off By One" which is the exact text that occurs in the listing doesn't yield any results.

In addition to Andrew's example, think also of security, privacy and registry bloat. If you are familiar with a typical user's registry, you are aware of the vast amount of information (and often junk) that gets deposited there by applications.

It's a tiny executable that will auto-download all the different compression DLLs.
