Portable versions of CS4, designed to run off thumbdrives. Are they legal?

Depends where you get it from. I can see plenty of illegal downloads for it using google, but no official download sites or anywhere to buy it, so it's probably illegal. Watch out for viruses.

I hadn't really thought it through, I assumed since Adobe hadn't tried to have the sites shut down they might be. But I guess having a portable version you could run on any machine defeats the purpose of licencing.
