Firefox Portable

Will i be able to run firefox portable in openVMS Alpha system?? I need to know this before i start any research on portable firefox.

Hi. I've read through several posts about FFP and other portable apps like Thunderbird and is it correct that there is no Profile Manager for FFP?

I'm trying to set up 2 different profiles on my thumb drive for me and my son. I've tried to run FirefoxPortable.exe -ProfileManager through the command line and it doesn't work. I read a thread that if you use the -ProfileManager command line with FirefoxPortable.exe that it passes that command line to the Firefox.exe application in the App\Firefox\ folder, but that's not true, because it didn't work.

Is there a way to tell FFP to use computer's default Temp folder for caching instead of Profile/Cache directory? When I use the browser from my flash drive, multiple writes to it are not very healthy for the flash memory and also considerably slower.
For example, Opera saves those files to C:/Documents and Settings/"user account"/Local Settings/Temp and later deletes them all when closed. Thanks.

Hi,

I need to run portable Firefox-2 in Win98, how can I install Flash-9 in the Firefox-2 ?

(Win98 can't use current Flash-10)
(The method suggest in https://portableapps.com/support/firefox_portable#plugins just install the "current" version Flash)

Thanks for help in advance.

If y'all's agreement with Mozilla allows it, anyway.

Portable Firefox just crashed on me, and when I tried to submit the crash report, it just said "There was an error submitting your crash report." Funny thing is, I'm pretty sure that it always does that. Firefox has crashed on me three, MAYBE four times since I've used it (to where the crash reporter comes up) and I don't remember it ever successfully submitting its crash report.

I have just upgraded to V3.0.10 from V3.0.4 on Windows XP Pro SP3.
I don't notice any difference between the versions so far. The reason I upgraded was due to this CPU hogging by Firefox. This happens only on certain websites. Here is an example of a website that does this:

This issue has been posted about a few times before, and, if my search-fu is to be trusted, has never been resolved, or even replied to. Here's hoping for a break from tradition.

First, I want to state clearly, and for the record, that this is not a request for portable Java. I don't need portable Java and I don't care about portable Java.

If I just pull my flash drive out of my computer, is there a way to make Firefox, and basically all of the programs I am using with Portable Apps, automatically close?

On every page I try to log in FFP 3.0.10 gives me the option to remember the entered user name and password. But when I'm logging into Yahoo and Hotmail sites, the above option is not available. Why is it so? I understand why this function is switched off for banks' pages and some financial institutions (like PayPal). But why for My Yahoo, Yahoo Mail or Hotmail and MSN? I had no such problem with GMail site. Could someone explain, please?

Hello,

How can I use a picture as my homepage in FFP? I have created a small html file which displays my picture as homepage. The problem is that it only works with set path. If my pen drive is allocated different drive letter, FFP can't find the photo (placed with mypage.html file in profile folder). I have already tried several suggestions from other forums but none of them worked. Thanks.
