You might take a look at the University of Arizona's Critical Language CD for Brazilian Portuguese.  A brief review appears at this 
site:

This review's conclusion:
>>
   In a market with a shortage of computer-based materials for Portuguese learning, Beginning Brazilian Portuguese is a wonderful addition to available resources. Its content is rich, organized and up-to-date. It accommodates different learning styles, and allows students to explore Brazilian culture, vocabulary, and grammar in context. In spite of the shortcomings discussed above, I would highly 
recommend this program for any adult interested in learning the Brazilian Portuguese.
