Firefox Portable

Hello:

I'm trying to get a feel of Firefox 4 before actually installing it by using the Mozilla Firefox Portable Edition from PortableApps via a removable USB flashtick drive.

I still have Firefox 3.6.16 installed on my hard drive, and I never use the two versions concurrently.

Today I started using Firefox Portable 3.6.16 on a system with a very old version of Firefox (v1.x). That old Firefox has no extensions or plugins installed. Firefox Portable is listing many extensions and plugins like a "Move Media Player" extension and Adobe Acrobat plugin. How is that possible?

I am using Firefox Portable version 3.6.16. Everywhere that I should see three periods, i.e. "...", I am seeing a black vertical bar. For example, here is what my tabs look like: http://www2.picturepush.com/photo/a/5389060/640/5389060.jpg

Text on the buttons under Tools->Options also exhibits this behavior. Anyone have an idea what it could be? Running Windows XP SP3.

I know I am one of the few but I am not ready to go to Firefox 4. Is there a way for me to upgrade to 3.6.16 using the legacy download. I tried installing and it did what it is intended to do, made a new Firefox installation. I really only want to update my current portable installation.

Thanks!!

Setup was not completed succesfully
Extract: xul.dll...95%

Tried to install downloads on different dates.
Allways no complete(xul.dll...95%) installation!

Why?
(FFP4.0 beta_11 had no installation problem)
(Same problem with german version of FFP4.0 (xul.dll...95%))

I would like to change Cache location from %FxPortable%/Data/Profile/Cache to %temp%.
Default about:config pref that does that - it doesn't work on portable Fx. Please, help.

Block firefox portable? Can it be done at schools etc?

If so how?

FFP V. 3.6.11, I have this addon called Metastream 3 plugin, it has a red exclamation point and everything about it is grayed out, I want to remove it how do I do this ? It's been disabled in FF because it is on some blockllist and I can do anything via the addon manager, so I would imagine this will be a particular folder to delete.

I use Firefox Portable at work. I updated to 4.0 but when I maximize the window the new Firefox button doesn't appear (the whole menu remains visible with the tabs below). Does anyone know how I can make the Firefox button appear?

Thanks!

Hi, I'm using firefox portable to display a presentation in kiosk mode, and I don't want that user is asked to update is version.

There's a setting to avoid the question?

Thank you
