Firefox Portable

Hi,

I've been playing around with my new FFP installation, and I noticed that there are a few files that use absolute paths, using the drive's letter to locate the resource. I see this as an issue, since this program is supposed to work independent of drive letter. Problematic files I've found so far:

FireFoxPortable\Data\profile\extensions.ini
FireFoxPortable\Data\profile\compatibility.ini
FireFoxPortable\Data\settings\FireFoxPortableSettings.ini
FireFoxPortable\DefaultData\profile\extensions.ini
FireFoxPortable\DefaultData\profile\compatibility.ini

when i am using firefox on my home pc, all my settings work. when I use another pc however, it goes back to it's original state;with none of my settings or extensions(except they appear in the add-ons menu). the files work too. so i used an application called dependency walker to diagnose this. what i found was 4 problematic files all of which are .dll files.these files are:DWMAPI.DLL,EFSADU.DLL,SHLWAPI.DLL and MPR.DLL.the error messages i get with them are:
Warning: At least one delay-load dependency module was not found;And:

I want translate my Firefox portable to Portuguese. May someone help me?

hey guys and girls,

i was just wondering how i can get rirefox portable to run on a network with hands off which is running novell delivered, i can load firefox but the network does not allow it to connect to the internet. do you guys have any idea how i can run a proxy or anything else for that matter that will bypass this little problem that i am having?

For those who want to use a HOSTS file with FireFox,
in which directory/folder should the HOSTS file be placed?

For example, when using Windows XP without portable apps,
the HOSTS file is normally placed
into "c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc",
but when using portable apps, there's normally no such directory.

What is the directory on the portable apps drive that is
equivalent to "c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc"?

I've been using FF Portable for years and for the last six months it's gotten progressively worse that the entire FF GUI will freeze and Firefox itself will become frozen and usable while a webpage loads.

I've tried to be very careful about limiting the number of extensions I have installed but sometimes I cringe when I access a blog or website containing tons of images or scripts because I can literally no longer use Firefox until it has completely downloaded the entire content of the page.

I downloaded the portable version of FF so I could use the bookmarks I already have for FF on my home computer. The million dollar question is... how do I get the bookmarks from my home computer's FF to the portable?
When I click on import, it only shows IE (which I rarely use).
Any ideas?
Thanks!

I am reposting this to give a better view of what I need. I have constructed a web page for viewing MSDS pdf files to be burned on a CD. I chose FFP to make it easy to use on many computers that have different windows and IE versions. Now I need to start FFP and have it start my file MSDSCD/CBI/index.html. I have tried to save that in my home page, but it either tries to access the internet or does nothing at all. When I assign a drive to the file e:/MSDSCD/CBI/index.html it works.

I've been experimenting with ways to speed up firefox Portable on slow Flash drives and the slow computers at Universities etc.

Here's my tricks:

Slow Flash:
-Remove any extensions and themes you don't use on the go, save them for your PC. This boost start up times drastically.
-Disable the disk cache, it's on your USB memory, its use is clogging up the drive for other read write operations firefox will want to do. This is done in "about:config", set "browser.cache.disk.enable" to "False". Keep the memory cache.

Hello All. I'd like to be able to sync between my Desktop and my flash drive so that I always have the same information on both. Please can someone advise me? Thanks
