Hey all. I'm the developer of BPFTP Server/Client and I'm big into the USB/Flash-Drive thing.

To this end, I just released "BulletProof FTP Server Portable Edition" which includes an installer and Auto-Run support (as much as MS will allow prior to their Start-Key product later in the year).

Check it out, let me know if you run into problems at:
