Hello everybody.
I've got the problem that it seems not possible for me to start PortableFirefoxLive from a cd-r using autostart.
I'd like to have Firefox starting on putting the cd-r into a drive. So I got the edited firefox.ini to run Firefox from a cd-r, copied the whole stuff to the root of the cd-r and used the following string in the autostart.inf:
[autorun]
open=FirefoxPortable.exe
icon=sicon.ico
So, if I put the cd-r in any computer nothing happens, only the dataexplorer pops up and shows me the content of the cd-r ... that's it.
It seems that the loader does not start. If I start it by doubleclick everything is fine.
So what's the fault? Any hints for me?
Greetings and thanks...

ok but these lines don't differ much from the lines i posted above.
instead of your autorun.exe i tried to start the firefoxportable.exe.
i tried it over here and it works.
my pogo cd uses that and it starts automaticlly
without me touching the mouse and same with firefox portable on cd
try this
[autorun]
START=\PortableApps\FirefoxPortable\FirefoxPortable.exe
and save it as autorun.inf in the root of the cd
(when u click on the cd drive put the autorun file there)

oh, maybe you've found the fault because i didn't use a backslash in front of the directoryname... i have to try this ... feedback will follow soon
glad i could help

Na na na, come on!
starting the brain before doing something is quite good ...
it was my exclusive fault ... i named the autostart-file 'autoSTART.inf' instead of 'autoRUN.inf' ... so now everthing is working fine.
thanks for your time!!
