eCalc - basic calculator in a standalone .exe

The free desktop version of our calculator is just like the online version. It features large buttons for easy mouse navigation, and a large character display that is easy to read. The calculator also includes standard keyboard entry for those who prefer non-mouse entry.

Update: We've compiled eCalc basic calculator into a standalone .exe which allows you to run the calculator from a flash thumb drive, or right from your desktop without requiring any installation. Download Portable Calculator (Standalone exe version)

note: I did not test for registry entries

why does it try to connect to internet?

Good lord....

You are correct.

For whatever reason it does open an internet port.

If the admins feel this may be spyware in any way please delete the entire thread.

My apologies for posting it. I am not affiliated with the program in any way.

<sigh>

just seemed odd to me, if i block internet connection it doesnt run :S

so it just seemed fishy for me and not really portable either

edit: as for spyware, the scan came up clean, just didn't like something connecting to internet when i just wanted it to add 1+1 or something

It is working.

But..

(sigh)..
- only run when completely offline
- no backspace.
- no win edge snap.
- writes some value to WinReg
