Firefox Portable

FirefoxPortable 2.0.0.1 is installed on an external hard drive. I do not want it to update automatically to a new version of FirefoxPortable. I also do not want FirefoxPortable to connect to the internet.

First, I have modified several preferences in "about:config" to the following in order to prevent access to the internet:

(I type "about:config" in the address bar and type "proxy" in the "Find" box.)

(Preference Name, Status, Type, Value)
network.proxy.http, user set, string, 1
network.proxy.http_port, user set, integer, 8080
network.proxy.type, user set, integer, 1

I searched around a bit and found that to run multiple instances of firefox, the ini file is to be changed (and put in same directory as the portable exe file). I did this with the following line (changed from "=false" to "=true")

AllowMultipleInstances=true

But this still does not work !!!!!

Any help appreciated.

The ini file change was suggested at

Some information :

Firefox was working fine yesterday. Today when I try to start I get an XULRunner error box that says:
Error:App:Name not specified in application.ini

I was goofing off with my FireFox Portable this morning, and discovered this:
PDF Download.

You have to wait for the page to be converted via the companies' webpage, which kinda stinks, but if you need a PDF conversion in a pinch, it might be worth it.

Just that, I want to sync my Portable Mozilla Apps (Firefox and Thunderbird) with Ubuntu, where I find my profiles there or how can I do it to sync automatically?

Thanks in advance!

I'm using FireFox Portable 3.0.3 and I can't seem to use save or save as. I've tried it on multiple computers all WinXP SP2 (or possibly 3 for some). All the computers are library computers with limited access but, everything else works.

for some reason when I pop open FFP 2.0.0.0.17, it opens 100s of firefox windows and I only clicked once. I've downgraded then upgraded and the issue seems to have corrected itself, but it pops up no and then. I constantly have to upgrade and downgrade my ffp. I haven't upgraded to 3.0.3 since it runs abymsyally slow on my thumbdrive

Firefox Portable automatically imports:
* Bookmarks
* Add-Ons
...from my current Firefox 2 (non-portable) installation.

1) Is there a way of disabling this?
2) Is there a way to get green BACK and FORWARD buttons like the desktop release, not the current blue ones?

Recently updated my firefox portable to the newest version. Since then, I cannot log into or do much within the browser that requires me to click a button.

ie: logging into hotmail, or facebook. enter the name and password..then click enter.. and nothing works.

I have it installed locally, but the plugin file isn't in the plugin directory. sun.com sees my version of java, yet Java apps won't run in FF. How do I rectify this situation?

Thanks
