Default 50 mb limit, Field mcguyver disk for my work

with a 50 mb limit, i need suggestions on what should go on my field disk i will be using for work.

disk should include tools to diagnose hardware problems, remove spyware and some virus removal, a few tweaks, internet explorer replacement, and maybe a good firewall and other than that, just whatever you think i might have forgotten...

the submission i like the most wins a bag of 10 thumbscrews, because im just that damn generous...

Damn Small Linux

diagnose hardware problems: check
remove spyware and some virus removal: replaces windows, so, check
a few tweaks: same as above, check
internet explorer replacement: super duper check
maybe a good firewall: well, four out of five ain't bad
