Firefox Portable

Hello, I need to run Firefox from a portable USB drive. I want ALL the Firefox data/user data/app data/EVERYTHING be on the USB key and run from the USB key.

I want Firefox to leave NO TRACES AT ALL on the computer I use it on, meaning no hidden folders left, no cookies/cache left on the computer: I want everything stored and saved on the USB key. Cookies/Temporary internet files/cache - all has to be on the USB key, and when I choose "Clear Private Data" I want these files to be cleared from the USB KEY.

Frequenly Firefox Portable stops connecting to "any" website, it just spins and searches. Then if I close and try to reopen it, I get the message that it is already running and I have to reboot to get it to start working again.

Running from a thumb drive
Haven't renamed from the installation name i.e. still FireFoxPortable.exe
I can close out all processes in the Windows Task Manager except one "firefox.exe"
I am not really using the desktop version of FireFox anymore.
IE still works normally when this occurs.

Thanks for any help

I have updated FF portable twice now. Initial version was 2.0.0.12 (installed in Feb-08) then upgraded to ver 3.0 (June-08) and finally to ver 3.0.3 a few days ago. About 6 weeks ago I noticed that FF was deleting all of the cookies regardless of the privacy settings. I was hoping that installing the latest upgrade would solve this problem, but I'm seeing the same behavior. Any suggestions or thoughts as to what is happening? Thanks for the help!

Please help. I installed Mozilla Firefox for U3 from the menu on my SanDisk U3 Launch pad and my MS Internet Explorer (IE) no longer works on the host system.

IE launches but only has a desktop with no options that work. I have uninstalled and reinstalled IE from the Control Panel. This had no impact. I assume the IE settings were hosed. Note: This was the first time Firefox was introduced to the host system.

I would appreciate a lead on fixing the problem.

Hi guys,

Hi Everybody.

First of all, perdon my poor english, I'll do my best.

So when I try to listen an audio streaming (http://www.ouifm.fr/popupradio.php), firefox crashes (freezes is better). I don't understand why cause ther is windoze media player 11 installed and also th e plugin media player 11 for firefox (from mozilla-addons).

I don't know what to do. So If you have an answer, it will help me spoil somme time at work.

Hello all,

Sorry i'm new here so maybe this question is ask before. But i'm goingto ask it again.

I just download portable Firefox & Thunderbird. I'm going on a trip so i want to take my broser and emails with me. Since today i have webmail on TB so i can also get my hotmail mails in TB.

When i look at the information page of FF & TB portable then i read this:

for Firefox: Just copy the contents of that folder (except the cache directories) to the FirefoxPortable\Data\profile directory.

For Thunderbird: Just copy all of those files to the Data\profile.

Hello,

is it allowed to change the Splash-Screen for a CD-Presentation? I'd like to to replace it with something like "Please Wait", but I would/could keep the "portableapps.com/FirefoxPortable"-advertisment.
The CD-Presentation is not just for my personal use.

Greetings from Germany
and thanks for the help

Since I've updated to 3.0.3, FF when firing up wants to open two tabs, both of which generate errors. At that point I can click the home button and it opens to my home page. I would think by default it would open to what is set as home, any ideas?

Can you put themes into the portable version of FF?

I'm having some difficulty in searching the forums for this question. It seems it'd be a fairly simple thing, yet I don't see anything in FAQs or by doing a search. I have a full version of FF installed on the PC I am using and it seems as though the themes I am downloading are going to directories related specifically to that installation rather than the port. I am using the Port version's addon manager to try to install these.
