Opera 9.5 USB: Opera browser goes portable

Opera 9.5 USB
The makers of the Opera web browser don't officially make a portable version of the browser that can be run from a USB stick.

All you need to do to run Opera 9.5 USB is unzip the program folder to your hard drive or to a USB stick. You can run the program without affecting your current Opera versions or other web browser settings.
