Extentions for Firefox Portable 3.0.4

Submitted by Antimalware18 on November 25, 2008 - 1:48am

Hello,

Im new here, after comming upon this site I decided to download and install Firefox Portable 3.0.4 directly onto my USB U3 drive since U3 only has a outdated version of FF and well after installing I came upon the problem I cannot download any ad-ons for firefox the list includes

Finjan Secure Browising
WOT (web of trust)
NoScript
Ad-block pluss
and ForeCast Fox

and alot of others, is there any workaround for this? I work alot off of my flash drive and am really hoping to get these ad-ons to work soon.

thank you

Firefox updates

1. After attaching my USB drive to my main system I received a notice that an update was available for Firefox but the update would not install—how do I get that update?

2. Is it possible to install add-ons to Portable Firefox? When I tried (several times) to add Download Helper I got only error messages.

How to have global full-zoom level and site-specific text-zoom?

Hi

I'm currently using same portable Firefox copy on 3 three different PC's and each one has it's own resolution settings so each time I move from one computer to another I have to adjust every website manually.

Now Firefox 3 has 2 types of zoom: full-zoom (including pictures) and test-only zoom. As I understand these two are independent. So the best solution for me is to use full-zoom to adjust computer-specific zoom level and to use test-zoom to adjust test size for some sites (I do it frequently).

Search bar won't work.

3.04 search plugins not functioning, enter or click does nothing, enter or click with nothing in the box leads to root page. Reset to default and deleted sqlite file as suggested in firefox livechat help. Still nothing.

a clean install functions, the error is somewhere in the profile.

What files relate to the search bar? I would like to delete them or copy over defaults from. I must keep my profile.

I wish this forum had email notify.

Thank you for your time.

No Script Extension file names

Submitted by DADSGETNDOWN on November 22, 2008 - 12:10am

Why from addons.mozilla the file name for the current NoScript
Extension is,
noscript-1.8.5-fx+sm+fn.xpi

But from the No Script website it is,
noscript-1.8.5.xpi

They both seem to be the same file size.
Does this have something to do with people just like to make
conflicts or something like that ?

Reminds me of making maps and textures in Unreal 1.

I was thinking that it might be helpful if PA.com had a list of validated firefox extensions that have been checked and verified to work with the portable version.

If not on the main site itself then how about a Stickied forum topic like the FAQs thread.

I'll start Smile

flash won't update in ffportable

Submitted by gracie on November 20, 2008 - 1:12pm

clicking add-ons in my portable firefox (installed on a flash drive and on a usb hard drive) shows both version 8 and version 10 (the current) installed, but going to a page with flash content, only version 8 plays. when i disable version 8 in add-ons, leaving version 10 enabled, nothing will play! i tried installing the extension per your plug-in page, but it says it failed because "install script not found".

any help? i do want to be able to see flash content, but am loathe to continue running version 8 (which works fine in ff portable) for security reasons. thanx.
