Hi guys, I have a question for you, do somebody knows why my firefox portable directory is increasing its dimension? when I unpacked it was about 30MB, now is over 100MB...Why? and how can I reduce the dimension without losing data? ther's something I can delete?
Thank you
Bye

when you install more than five extensions/themes its size grows a lot(& I know what I am talking about:I have nearly 30 addons & themes)
This is most likely due to the anti-phishing that Firefox has enabled by default. A database is downloaded from Google which has a list of all sites suspected of phishing. There is information here on how to speed up FirefoxPortable and how to disable the anti-phishing database to reduce your folder size by approximately 50MB.
accumulated history and bookmarks also increase the folder a bit.
