Firefox Portable

To echo other commenters, I find FF3 RC2 much slower than FF2. I have a pretty fast USB flash drive, based on what I've read. It's the Patriot Xporter XT. FF2 (2.0.0.14) runs lickety-split. FF3 RC2 runs like a dog through molasses. Disk caching is turned off. Pipelining turned on. No saving of passwords. Fewer add-ons than I have on FF2.

I have not turned off remembering history and form fields. How much resources and disk accesses do those consume?

John, will you be updating your page that explains how to make Firefox look like IE for FF3?

Well - The latest 3 work fine !

"only" a few of my favorite add-ons do not.

One goes to 3.0b1 and one to 3.0b5 (stop with the new version)

Is it possible to get earlier models of 3?

Right: It is a small "problem".
But I like to test if they work, like it is written.

Otherwise I just will live without them ...

Hi!
Like in subject, I try to set "true" on DisableSplashScreen in config file in \Firefox\Other\Source\FirefoxPortable.ini ma the splash screen remains, what must I do?

Thank you!
Ciao!

Hej - Can Firefox Portable "speak" Swedish?
(Or Polish or whatever ...)
As far as I can see there is 4 official languages, but it seams that you can install some from the language pack:

I tried to download Swedish, but could not get to work.

Maybe I placed it in a wrong folder?

So can it be doned?

Or is it impossible???

I have an idea that I've been throwing around since learning that Firefox 3 scans downloaded files ( http://www.ghacks.net/2008/06/04/disable-automatic-virus-scanning-in-fir... ), using locally installed virus scanning software... that is, is there a way to change that setting in order to stipulate that Firefox Portable use ClamWin Portable instead? This way, Firefox Portable 3 would still be entirely portable, instead of relying on software (virus scanner) installed on the local machine.

I'm looking for an option or lightweight extension that will cause any url typed in the address bar to open in a new tab. I used to use Tabbrowser Preferences to accomplish this, but it does not support FFP3. Any ideas?

The title says all, Firefox Portable 2 is working slowly on my 4 GB Kingston Flash.
Sometimes it freezes also.
Is it because of low speed of my flash drive?
Or is FFP 3RC2 as slow as FFP 2?

Thanks.

I could not run FF3portable in D:\!MYTOOLS\FirefoxPortable3
works fine in D:\mytools\FirefoxPortable3
What could be the problem?

Hello

I sew on Compatibility page that there is a problem with XUL-Based apps (Firefox, Thunderbird, Sunbird, Nvu) with fonts. There is a solution to this problem, and it doesn't affect theses applications on Windows or Themes.

Open PortableApps\FirefoxPortable\Data\Profile\chrome\ . If there isn't file nammed userChrome.css, create a copy of the file UserChrome-Exemple.css and rename it UserChrome.css. Open it with a notepad and add at the end of file theses lines :

* {
font-family: "Tahoma", "Sans";
}
