Another option to take a look at might be Debrief Notes, which also can be run from a USB drive. It is a fairly fully featured application combining notes and task management. The user interface takes some getting used to—and seems to be the deal-breaker for a lot of people—but I suggest you give it a whirl.

+Of course, UltraRecall is another candidate that works from a USB stick (I never have used it as such myslef due to the size of my databases) and its files can be encrypted. In addition, UR can sync with Outlook.
The only deal-breaker here may the possible slowdown of future development; but it is a mature product.

Sorry for the many posts; it seems that as soon as I post something another idea comes to mind that I hadn’t thought of earlier.
Do take a look at PortableApps http://portableapps.com/—it may be able to make your favourite apps portable, even if they were not designed that way.

I remember when there was a thread on Debrief last year, and I passed on the program at the time. I will take a closer look. Stephen, do you find the program to be stable?

Stephen,
In a previous post, you mentioned programs from Simbust ( http://www.simbust.com/default.php ). Do you know anything about them?
