I have access at one location to an old computer running Windows 98 SE. When I try to use the latest Firefox Portable (v 3.0) it won't load but the older v.2.x did. Can anyone explain why? Is V 3.0 only for Win XP and Vista?

I had 2 ideas that I thought might be good ideas to incorporate into the next PAM release. so here they are.

1 along with the Documents, music, and photos folders could a folder for Portableapps be added? maybe make it optional.

Also would there be a way to set a Personal folder right under the rest of the folders, that the user could set the path to, and set their own personal icon for it.

so that If I want to set a personal folder documents\homework\intro to programming

Has anyone else had problems with the PortableApps RSS feed not updating in Firefox 3? I have seen this on my work computer and home computer. I have to right click and "Reload Live Bookmark" in order to get the latest.

Never had this problem before with FF 2.0.0.14. If anyone knows a solution, please post.

Thanks.

I'm wondering, are you paying to Sourceforge for hosting your apps there? Or they are doing it for free? Just curious.

If anyone would like to help me, would you please download it and put into a zip file or rar file then send that zip file or rar file to a online storage site and then post that link here.
Thank you so much!

Does anyone out there know of an extension or plug-in that would add the functionality of viewing and editing an address book file in Firefox portable or Sunbird portable? I think the Thunderbird address book is a .mab file.

I use Thunderbird for my e-mail client at home but using Thunderbird portable isn't really practical for me. I really didn't want to load Thunderbird portable just for the access to my address book.

Would anyone like EyeOS portable? It's an open-source, web based operating system. I've been working on a portable version for a couple days, so if anyone else besides me would like it, please post here. Yes, you can get a free eyeos account at eyeos.info, but there server's sometimes slow, and, just for privacy's sake.

Edit: I have the installer posted in the beta testing forum. Get it here:
