IE in USB Flash Drive?

Is there a portable IE that I can store in my usb flash drive? (meaning run IE from the USB drive)

~ I can't view certain website cause I'm not an admin and don't have the priviliged to update IE

~ I can't use Firefox or Opera cause that website can be viewed by IE only.

~ Please provide link(s).

Thanks

Update:

Thanks guys. I think I'll ask my IT department to help me to uninstall IE and install it back. It will take 2 to 3 days for him to get here but I think that's the best way.

Thanks all

    Only in an IE virtual machine. Internet Explorer standalone editions are not reliable enough and not compatible enough, because many of the .dll's have to be registered at the system level.

    It's a slow and big way of doing it, but it will work. Microsoft provides free virtualization software, and a free copy of Windows XP with a preinstalled version of Internet Explorer.

    I found the link below, and from that I really doubt that there's a way to get it to work. Remember firefox/opera is free, where is IE is owned by MS, so they would have to be the one to make it.

    As far as the page being IE only, have you ever tried?

    I would say that there are maybe only pages that I can name that don't support firefox.

    A flashpersistent is a memory storage device, no longer something to do with on the spot and your computing device does no longer inform you which you incredibly pick one. What your searching for is a USB WiFi adapter 54Mbps or extra beneficial. A Wifi Adapter might fee around £ 10-15 If its a memory stick you pick it could be around £ 8 for 1GB

    Can not happen.

    Internet explorer is integrated too far into the windows explorer system that is it is impossible to do this.

    Besides doesn't every computer have IE, who said you needed to update IE to view the website.
