Is it possible to install MUSH to a CD and play off of it at computers I visit?

I don't see a big problem doing that. I would simply copy the installed directory (MUSHclient directory after installation, for example from "Program Files" directory) onto a CD, and then play from that. You won't be able to save changes to your world files, unless you copy them to the hard disk.

You will also need to re-enter your registration code (assuming you have one) when you start the program, as the registration code is stored in the Registry. However if you wait 30 seconds then that isn't necessary.

Thanks, Nick. Once I figure out how to actually do it (hopefully its as easy as explained) I will purchase the full version. I appreciate the assistance.

It's simpler if you save the sections of the registery Mush needs to a reg file. Then you can simply open that file on the cd before opening MUSHclient, and you won't have to register, all your settings will be saved etc... This assumes that the computer you are using the CD on has permissions to allow you to edit the registry.
