It's packaged in PortableApps.com Format so it can easily integrate with the PortableApps.com Suite. And it's open source and completely free. Read on for more details...

Iron is packaged for portable use with permission from SRWare.

It supports upgrades by installing right over an existing copy, preserving all settings. And it's in PortableApps.com Format, so it automatically works with the PortableApps.com Suite including the Menu and Backup Utility.

I downloaded and installed this. I then copied IronPortable.ini to the installation directory and edited the copy so that I had:

PortablePasswords=true
EncryptPortablePasswords=true

But, unlike Google Chrome, the passwords don't seem to be saved when I move from one machine to another. Is this feature meant to work in Iron?

Yes, that's supposed to work in Iron, and I thought it did.

Would you mind creating a bug report in the forums, please? This is likely to take awhile to fix, and ideally we wouldn't be using the press release for bug hunting. Also, please post your OS, since that may be related to the issue.
