Default Outlook in a memory stick

Has anyone tried to install Outlook (2007) in a memory stick? Can I then use
my mail in an any computer including netcafes, while I'm travelling?

Probably won't work. Setup an easy way to copy your .PST file from
the home computer to your notebook (using the memory stick as the
go-between) before you leave.

You'll also have to setup a way to copy that file back to the home
computer when you return so that everything will stay synched.

I've done it many a time.

I understand that you can install Ms-Office in *certain* memory
sticks. They are called "MIGO", or something similar. Also, you can
install freeware email clients, like Mozilla's Thunderbird, in *U3*
kind of memory sticks.

If it is safe or not (think in keyloggers or other malware that
plagued netcafes), I am not so sure.

no, the best you can do is put the pst on the stick - but if you aren't
careful, its an easy way to corrupt the pst (if you pull the stick before
closing outlook).

Better and more secure is using web access to view your email on the server.

From a strictly technical standpoint it CAN be done, but don't know if I
would want to do it. You can load the whole OS and Outlook on the stick. IF
the computer being used is USB boot capable, it can be done. Downside is if
you lose the TD, someone has all your email...
