It is [almost] portable as is. Just...
1. run the installer & copy the entire wxDownloadFast directory to your flash drive
2. copy mingwm10.dll from c:\windows\system32 to the wxDownloadFast directory (on your flash drive)
2. uninstall the original program from your computer
I haven't tested this on other computers but it appears that's all wxDF relies on. I found no registry settings running this setup and wxDF leaves nothing in ApplicationData. The uninstaller deletes the required dll from system32. It appears that at run-time if mingwm10.dll can't be found in system32, wxDF will automatically check (and find it in) the current directory.
I'm just trying to work out where it stores it's settings.

damn...
c:\documents and settings\(user)\wxDownloadFast.ini
edit: launcher... http://kmbb.org/downloads/wxDFast_launcher.exe
This will carry your settings back and forth cleanly.
note: this is a quick hack, the exe is really a compiled batch file which will work with win2000/xp (maybe vista?)
