Firefox Portable

Hello,

I have noticed that firefoxportable.exe is constantly switching contexts (can be seen with process explorer for example). seems like a resource hog - any reason for this ?

If one were to redistribute the unmodified binary installer for the Mozilla Firefox Portable Edition software, whether commercially or non-commercially, would it be necessary to include any additional source files in order to comply with licensing requirements? (Probably not, but the answer is not totally clear.)

Hi guys!

I've just downloaded Firefox 3.6.9 and manually updated some addons after installing it and noticed that after clicking the "restart" button that is provided when the addons have finished installing the firefox launcher exe stopped running (obviously thinking firefox had exited) and firefox reopened IN AN UNPORTABLE STATE.

Firefox has left two files and a couple of folders under C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Mozilla\

I will try opening and closing firefox to see if it will clean up and post back

I noticed that no new versions of Firefox Portable Edition 4.0 Beta have been released after Beta3 on 13 august, while in the mean time Beta4, 5 and 6 have been released from Mozilla.

Is there a particular reason for that or is it just a matter of time or a coincidence?

Obviously I'm not complaining at all; just curious.

I would like to know if there is a new version out on FFP that already has the latest adobe flash update, i downloaded ver. 3.6.9 and im having issues updating my flash player... which is really annoying considering my Yahoo Messenger runs off of it. Any assistance? (fyi I've tried about 50 different links to download AFP)

Just wanted to let people know how I got the Google Voice plugin to work so that I could use the "Call Phone" feature from within gmail. This is *not* elegant but it's the only way I could figure it out because the target computer is behind some nasty firewalls (and the Google Voice installer isn't allowed to call home to download its files).

1. Install the Google Voice plugin on your home computer.
2. Locate the Google Voice and Video Accelerator plugins in FF using about:plugins.
3. Copy those to your Firefox Portable plugins directory on the flash drive.

Hey guys,

Ive done something who people might be interested in doing themselves.
I downloaded firefox 4 beta 4 portable edition from here at PA.com
I also went to Mozilla's site and downloaded firefox beta 5.
Then, I ran the portableapps.com installer and the firefox 4 beta 5 installer
Canceled portableapps.com when it wanted to connect to the internet to download the files, and copied the fresh install of beta 5 to the 'app\firefox' directory
Seems to work fine.

Ack! Installed 3.6.9 over a well-working copy of 3.6.8 on my Fantom 1 Tb. external hard drive, went to You Tube, and get a "Adobe Flash has crashed" error. Same on Disney.com. Non-video sites that use Flash just for bling work fine.

Hello Mates,

yesterday I was receiving a new USB Stick with a lot of space.
My plan was to put on Firefox Portable to be able to download files on the HP Thin Client at my workplace. The operating system is Windows CE 2.40

I downloaded and installed the program before at home on my Win7 Laptop and it worked properly. Now always when I try to run any app on the Thin Client, there occures following message:

Cannot find 'Firefox Portable' (or one of its components). Make sure the path and filename are correct and that all the required libraries are available.

i have a computer at home, and sometimes it's connected to the internet and sometimes not.

for those times without, i tried FFP as found on portableapps, and went to do some internet banking and such in the public library. the start-up is really slow and sometimes the computer hangs... there's not much i can do, i don't have administrative rights on these machines and time is short.
(the computers are fast enough otherwise, i think the anti-virus is on some kind of paranoia mode or removable drives get triple checked or sth.)
