Portable FF 3.0.4: "Flashblock" and "Fireshot" extensions incompatible?

Submitted by sehlat on November 14, 2008 - 12:37pm

My portable copy of 3.0.4 has Flashblock 1.5.7 and Fireshot 0.61 installed. Both report that they are "Not compatible with Firefox 3.0.4"

However, the non-portable 3.0.4 which I installed on my desktop as a test installed both extensions with no difficulty.

How to report a site

Submitted by getco on November 12, 2008 - 12:02pm

You know how FF tells you about phishing sites, etc. Well how do you report a site to FF if it's not in their DB? I stumble across scam sites from time to time and FF doesn't warn me about them so I assume they're not in FF's DB. So is there a way I can submit these sites?

Can't Set Up Open Office and Helper App

Submitted by dhartsoc on November 12, 2008 - 10:26am

I am giving Portable Apps a test run on a 1Gb usb drive.

The full suite is installed. I have tried within Portable Firefox 3.02, to set up Open Office as a Helper App for DOC files. It just doesn't take, defaults to Always Ask. Setting up Sumatra as a Helper app worked just fine. I'd appreciate and clues on how to proceed.

Downloads, Open Folder, Popups.

Hello Boys and Girls.
I am wondering if these 2 or 3 things are is purposely left out,
or maybe it should or could be requested.
Or maybe there is a setting or a fix.

(1) = When you click a download link to a file FF does not have a
popup blocker, per say, I do use Adblock+ 7.5.5.
Like IE it blocks it then a little bar up top says it was blocked,
and you can click that and choose to download the file.
So to me apparently it might be blocking popups, I can't tell.
But not the ones that the user clicks a link for.?

There seems to be no allow popups or temporarily allow,
