    Portable Virtual


    I like the idea of virtual Windows, and have successfully used both VM Ware and Oracle Virtualbox. I have always wanted to install virtual windows to an external drive that I could plug in to any computer. There is a Portable Virtualbox, but not sure if this is part of Oracle. I downloaded the portable but when I tried to install, it set off my anti-virus. I know I could shut the anti-virus off, or make an exception, but is a program like this safe to use?

    :)

    No, it appears to be a portable wrapper written by a 3rd-party that can be used to download the official Virtualbox and install it as a portable app. The How-To Geek explains more here:

    Use Portable VirtualBox to Take Virtual Machines With You Everywhere

    I can't even get as far as downloading it, Firefox objects....
