Firefox Portable

Hello everybody.

Apologies in advance for a rather basic query.

My Grandparents have been having a few problems with IE on their Desktop PC. I was planning to download portable firefox so they can see whether they get on with FF any better before eventually doing a “proper” install of the program. I wasn’t going to use the launcher, just run portable FF off the internal hard drive of the PC with a shortcut on the desktop. I just wanted to double check that using portable Firefox this way over an extended period of time was ok and wouldn’t cause any problems? Thanks

Hi all,

I am distributing a web site on CD for some users who need to use it in environment where they do not have internet access.

The protection mode in Internet Explorer prevents it from accessing local flash files, so I can't allow the user to open the site off the CD in Explorer as it simply won't work.

I am currently experiencing some crash problem with Firebug extension on Firefox, so I want to see if I can install and run portable Firefox on the same system with only the Firebug extension. I wish to have both the regular Firefox and portable Firefox running at the same time, is this possible? Thanks.

To get firefox portable to work i need to find out my school's network proxy settings from IE. All The options in IE are blocked and i need a way to get hold of them.

Thanks

Hi all,

can I (or better: someone) create an "unbranded" Firefox Portable?
e.g. that firefoxportable.exe becomes ABACUS.exe und firefox.exe CONNECT.exe or anything And no file that has *portableapps* included into filename.
In summary there should be a firefox portable, that in invisible for e.g. filescans. that it couldn't be found.

please help me.

thanks a lot!

Now what .SQLITE file I gotta delete if my Portable Firefox won't search from the search box? This happened in an older version, and just recently cropped up in 3.0.11. As I recall, uninstall/reinstall is only good for a day or so, if that; there's a .SQLITE file in the profile that gets corrupted, and a reinstall doesn't help, but deleting the file does.

search.sqlite?
urlclassifier3.sqlite?
formhistory.sqlite?
places.sqlite?

Hi! The Portable version gets installed and the same thing does the Portable version of Thunderbird. And can't get uninstalled since there aren't uninstalling files (.exe). Thanks.

...despite the state of the "When I open a link in a new tab, switch to it immediately" setting. (Seen in all versions of Firefox Portable 3.0)

I need to use a portable FF on a Mac at the end of the day - morning here.
The download page says for Windows.
If I recall well I had an older version for MAC (v.3.0.0) from Portable apps?
Can you advice. Thanks

Does this extension impacts Portable FF as well?

If you use Firefox, you may be unaware that Microsft had added a FF extension without asking permission. This extension is part of the .NET update; it allows any Internet site to install S/W on your computer without asking.
