Write requests to the portable folder

I noticed that starting the FirefoxPortable from a usb-stick causes a lot of "IRP_MJ_WRITE" request to my stick.

Can anyone tell, to which files on the stick were changed?
Thanks.

phishing database

there is a databse against phishing attacks or similar and this has to be downloaded and stored somewhere. Firts run takes much longer therefore.
Otherwise if you have cache enabled, it will write this as well.

Also

the cookies database, places database, session database, prefs file is refreshed, settings for addons, rebuild data for XUL.mfl and XPC.mfl, and likely other things.
