Making firefox look like IE - Need mirror for files

Submitted by StephenQ on December 6, 2006 - 7:20pm

Hello,
I have upgraded to portable firefox 2, and John's page on his personal site which instructs how to make firefox look like IE links to a lot of Bamm's work, and the site has been down, for months.
I cant find any mirror at all for the files, so i cannot install them.
Does anyone have a copy of the extensions discussed on this page?

Thanks.

surfing software

My IT department has installed what they call "surfing software". they claim this allows them to monitor where we go on the internet. If I'm using portable firefox running on a flash drive can the software detect that?

I'm using my flash at work and was wondering where the cookies and visited web page information goes. Do the portable apps really leave no trace except for the registry entry?

FFP 2.0 stoped working

Submitted by campsoup1988 on December 4, 2006 - 8:12am

FFP 2.0 was working for me. Now, it loads PortableApps' splash and that is IT! The most recent extention I installed was Fasterfox ( https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/1269/ ) which worked fine for a day, but now it wont load.

Here is a list of my other extentions and themes. A few of them I updated since I made the list, so not all of the version numbers might not be the same.

Extensions (enabled: 47, disabled: 4):

* Batch Download 1.1.2
* BBCode Formatting Extension (Alpha) 0.0.388a1 [disabled]
* BBCodeXtra 0.2.5.6
* Bookmark Duplicate Detector 0.6.2
* Check4Change 1.6
* ConquerTell 1.1.5

Illegal operation plug in

Submitted by darylu on December 1, 2006 - 8:49am

I've had alot of computer problems recently. So, I may have to try reinstalling my XP and start all over. But, I'm trying to pick away at things and see, even if I start all over, that I at least understand where things went haywire.

My specific error on FF Portable is this error that I get when it starts "Illegal Operation Plug In". There was no other info to identify it. I went to extensions and uninstalled the only one there (Duh - I don't even know which one it was), then tryed restarting and get the same thing.

Any ideas what this is? Is it XP doing bad things or is it FF?
