64 bit system: save 181 MB by deleting firefox folder, and renaming firefox64 to firefox. Beta, standard, and ESR work fine.

... especially http://www.portablefreeware.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=72248#p72248 ...

I'm now convinced the newly found CDisplay Ex innounp extract fail is definitely an adware countermeasure -- please find an alternative viewer if you can...

CDisplay Ex is on v1.10.30, but uniextraction fails (with innounp 0.42).

Also leaves C:\Documents and Settings\{user}\Application Data\NwDocx\document.xml and document.xml.rels that contain all of the information in the last document opened !!!!! This is NOT nice !!!!!

webfork on 2012-03-19 02:26

Neutron: True -- newer versions started writing files to AppData. The empty file trick should fix that.

webfork on 2013-02-16 00:15

Comment: viewing quality of several DOC and DOCX format files was fairly simple. Both LibreOffice and AbiWord seemed like better converters, although this would be great for getting at the document's core text.

DL-ed it- Used it- Loved it
It's Irreplaceable

The only problem for me is it's bookmark feature
I'd say Comic Viewer is better when it comes to Bookmarking

Version 7 updated for 7 and vista. Even faster and can scroll pdf better than pdf readers. Also possible to save from pdf.

The download link is broken, ... you land on a website where "they check your browser", and then you have have to agree to install an extension .... and this is where I gave up.
I got the "MangaMeeya" somewhere else on the internet (I can't remember where, bcz as a precaution I used a live DVD to download the app). What I downloaded is clean (the .exe has a score of 1/69 on Virustotal, and all the DLLs are clean).
I tested rapidly the app: it is very fast.
