Downloaded and started FF3 Portable the other day...no problems. This morning, when I try to start it up, I get the PortableApps/FF3 splash screen, and then the Crash Reporter. Details of the crash are:

I'm using a Cruzer Micro 4GB with Windows XP. FF3 Portable worked fine for the past couple days. I disables the incompatible add-ons, updated the add-ons I had, and life was good. Today, I'm stuck with IE.
I've tried completely removing FF3 from my flash drive and making a clean re-install. After the new install, same problem.
I searched for "firefox 3 crashes" and most of the posts instructed me to disable Google Desktop Search, make sure my firewall and AV software was allowing FF3, etc. I've done all of that, but no luck.
Any thoughts?

I had the same error, with similar details. It had been working on other computers but then failed when I switched to a new computer. I got it working with a reinstall so i'm not sure what happened as I still have all the same add-ons.
I occasionally have filesystem errors with my drive as I go between computers, even with "safe" removal of drive. I suspect a critical file ended up on a bad spot in the memory.
Maybe your drive has some errors in it. That is my only input.
It would be nice if there was a way of starting FFP in safe mode... anybody?
Go to a command/dos prompt
cd to the
firefoxportable directory.
type:
firefoxportable.exe -safe-mode

Things have got to get better, they can't get worse, or can they?
Likle i said i have not got any dos/command prompt. is there a portable apps version of a command prompt ?????????
I downloaded the portable command prompt and tried your suggestion safe mode not working just comes up with the same message like you guys are having

Urgent help needed i was installing add-ons into firefox then the main PA crashed.
Why/How did PA crash when installing add-ons i will never know. it seemed strange. although my dial-up did timeout and log off. (it does that and it is annoying i am on to my ISP about it waiting for responce. please do not turn this into a get Broadband debate. I use dial-up for my own reasons).
(can i recover it in any way. i have no backup of the system. except the orig install for all apps i had.)
is there a recovery tool :)for PA or do i have to start again

I understand you are under duress but please don't post haphazardly, it is not useful. Please copy any relevant information from this post to your
CRASH CRASH ARRG topic
https://portableapps.com/node/15161
there is an edit tab near the top
and continue your request for help there, being clear as to what crashed and how (FF or the PAM).
John, has suggested you start by checking your drive for errors.
Good luck,
Tim
Things have got to get better, they can't get worse, or can they?
i will try and move it now. good idea. sorry you know what it is like when things go rong. it is easy to Panic Panic Panic first instead of thinking straight
it will not let me edit the comment above and i cant find the edit button you suggested i have moved it to my other topic but cant move it from here sorry.
