Andrew,
I just noticed that the new version of OperaUSB version 9 does not work with Win98 or ME (and presumably not with Win95). You might want to correct the system requirements in the database. The 8.54 version is still available at the OperaUSB website, but I'm not sure whether it handles the earlier versions of Windows.
Sorry I didn't see that earlier when I posted about the new version.

Opera Portable 9.10 (?)
Hi,
I don´t know about this software, anyway I post it only "as signalation"
http://www.kejut.com/operaportable
Maybe some Opera-Aficionado can say what´s better as portable...

In the Database you can already find OperaUSB 9.0The Opera browser that has been repacked so that you can run Opera by just clicking, without the need of installation or administrator rights. With download size of less than 5 MB, you get the same features of Opera compared to what you get in the installation version (even Flash Player 9 is included). Of course it's free!
Features
No registry entries are created or modified
No effect to existing installed browsers, either IE, Firefox or Opera
No trace left after exiting - files are overwritten, not just deleted
Doesn't make your USB drive tired - all code and data are stored in a temporary place on host computer
Create multiple profiles for different places
Easy to distribute and use, not limited to USB sticks or CDs
you can have different profiles for each of them. The profile file will contain all the settings you made while running. So, your settings, history, wand passwords, etc are packed into a single file, then they are overwritten and deleted on the host machine (so you leave no trace).

For strict users who want a "sure bet" that they won't leave any traces behind on the host computer, Opera Portable is the way to go. For users that don't want their computers to be crippled while Opera Portable "incinerates" (secure deletion) their downloaded files and want a snappy, no-wait startup, OperaUSB is what you want. Personally, I find it easier to update Opera Portable (just overwrite the exe), but some of the other details annoyed the hell out of me. Sure, in the event of a crash Opera Portable ensures there's nothing left behind, but if you're doing something else and it crashes you risk having your computer just sit there while the hard drive is thrashed to hell and back while Opera Portable overwrites everything.
I'm sticking with OperaUSB. I wish there was a middle-ground, where I could just keep all my settings intact easily when updating, but that has yet to appear.

Title: Opera Web Browser Remote Code Execution and Information
Disclosure Vulnerabilities
Description: Opera Web Browser is a browser that runs on multiple
operating systems. The application is exposed to multiple security
issues. The first issue is a remote code execution issue that occurs due to an
unspecified error. The second issue is an information disclosure issue that exists
because of errors in certain canvas functions that can cause the
canvas to be constructed with data from random memory. Opera versions
prior to 9.51 are affected.
