Firefox Portable

I don't have a portable drive available to me any longer so my only real option is a CD medium.

Anyway, I'm looking to put the profile on a specific path on the computer's hard drive rather than in my Portable Firefox dir.

How do I do this?

Why is there a default browser option when obviously it has no effect?

Also has any consideration been made as to how downloading updates may effect stability of the program?

I love Google Browser Sync (I'd love it if they could figure out how to sync it with IE favorites).
I understand that when using this extension, with Portable Firefox, it takes a long time to write to the fly drive. Are there other browser sync extensions out there that don't have this 'problem'?
Thanks!

Hi,

A friend has it on his usb stick.
Works fine with my XP Home but fails to go any further than logo screen when he tries it out on a Milenium.

I love portable apps, but I want a way to be able to use the firefox on my computer, and sync it with the firefox on my flash drive, and vice versa - with all the settings and bookmarks (cookies too, if possible) I've tried many things, but nothing works. Is there a simple way to do this?

I would also like to do it with thunderbird and the other programs.

Which ones are known to work? Which ones dont work?

I use the software at school, but for some reason firefox refuses to remember the password's for the school's proxy (at least, not for every site). Some sites work once like Google Mail, but others like IPB forums don't. It even comes up per image! Is there anyway to fix this?

I just installed Firefox Portable (Win XP Home) on my Fly Drive.
I copied the entire content of my Profile Directory from %APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles to the D:\FirefoxPortable\Data\profile folder. I deleted the FirefoxPortableSettings.ini file. When Portable Firefox opens it appears like a new version of Firefox, no bookmarks, extensions, etc.
What did I do wrong?
Thanks!

Bwahahaha!

Thought you guys might get a laugh out of this...

I have a strange problem with FFP under Win98:

I renamed the launcher to Game2Go.exe, and also the executable in App/firefox from firefox.exe to FirefoxPortable.exe. In accordance to this I changed also the FirefoxPortable.ini which sits in the same directory as Game2Go.exe (=FirefoxPortable.exe) to that:
[FirefoxPortable]
FirefoxDirectory=App\firefox
ProfileDirectory=Data\profile
PluginsDirectory=Data\plugins
SettingsDirectory=Data\settings
FirefoxExecutable=FirefoxPortable.exe
AdditionalParameters=
LocalHomepage=htdocs\index.html
DisableSplashScreen=false
