I'm just wondering if it is safe to use it on public. I hope it doesn't leave any files or spyware...

Provided the public computers mentioned allow running executables, the applications we provide are indeed safe to use on public computers.
Personally-identifiable information is removed when applications are closed.
There may be some non-personally-identifiable information that remains that is generated by Windows itself, depending on the computer and user account in use.
Spyware/malware/viruses are not permitted in any of our applications, and each application release is virus-scanned prior to release.
We recommend practicing Safe Portable App-ing, particularly when using public computers.
To be even safer, you may wish to have real-time virus scanning for your drive, available as part of the PortableApps.com Carbide.
Hi Gord,
It appears the link to PortableApps.com Carbide does not work. As i get "Error 404 - Page not found!". I believe this may be the correct one below :
http://worldsbestflashdrive.com/
It looks like the shop page is gone. I've updated the link. Thanks for letting me know!
[EDIT] Unfortunately, the worldsbestflashdrive site links to the same page on CustomUSB's site that no longer exists.
