Virtual Access Point (Virtual AP) – Share your Internet through Wi-Fi. Virtual AP is an easy-to-use software that turns any LAN-connected PC or laptop into a Wi-Fi wireless access point. So anyone nearby can surf the Internet through your sharing.
Also, your iPhone, PDA, mobile or what ever, can enjoy the Internet by connecting to the wireless network broadcasted by Virtual AP. A great idea to cut down your mobile bills, isn’t it?
This is also an ideal solution for setting up a temporary AP in a hotel room, meeting room, at home or the like.
Recommend running basic NTFS compression on the directory, especially if you install the extra translations install. Cuts file size almost in half.
I didn't have the ability to put it on a USB drive and try it out on another computer but I did install in a non-standard directory (on the desktop) and then moved the folder somewhere else. Seemed to work fine, although the settings are still pointing to a created local \My Documents folder for templates. Far from stealth. Edit: Ennovy covers this in the next entry below -- scroll down.
So ... good stuff. Always nice to have another program that will try to open MS Office files. So far I prefer the presentation progam and spreadsheets program over OpenOffice's offering. Also, starts much faster and uses less RAM than OpenOffice.

After installation you can run usbstick.exe to create portable version in desired folder

I tried it too some time ago and it didn't work - I guess they patched it.
Ennovy, if you have the working version, could you please check whether the license lets you share it?
You can install it on an arbitrary number of computers, but only one user may run the program at any given time.
I don't know if that's what you mean.

It worked just fine for me yesterday.
I installed it under Sandboxie and used the "create copy on USB stick" link in the Start Menu. The portable version created a ton of registry cruft on first run, but none of it was settings - settings are stored in a subfolder of the application folder.
I installed it in a sandbox and moved the installation folder outside the sandbox.
Started the software from that folder (again in a sandbox) and noticed that it only creates a file options.ini.
Move that file to the created folder outside the sandbox.
Edit this file to change the output folder and it's even portable.
