Firefox 3.5.2

I'm running Firefox 3.5.2 off of my flash drive, and for some reason every minute or so it slows down and freezes for about 15-20 seconds, and then is fine for another minute. what's going on?

Find on Page Feature Broken

Submitted by JeepFreak on August 16, 2009 - 6:14pm

I upgraded to PortableFirefox 3.5.2 and everything was great until my "Find on Page" (CTRL + F) feature stopped working. This was several days after the upgrade. I press CTRL + F and the bar shows up at the bottom, but when I type my search term into it, all the buttons stay "greyed out" (unselectable).

Anybody have any ideas?

Thank you!

Hypothetically, how would a Portable-focused fork of Firefox work?

Strictly hypothetically speaking, if someone were to recompile Firefox without the logo and name, and thus not be bound by the restrictions on Portable Firefox, what direction would we hypothetically want this to go?

1. Updates would be disabled, as they interfere with an installed Firefox. (They could be manually enabled if someone wanted it so.)

2. Session restore and the phishing protection would be disabled, as well as cache and history. All would be able to be manually enabled, again, of course.
