Firefox Portable

I have the proxy settings correct (borrowed from internet explorer installed on the PC) and pages 'load'. However, I need to login using a username and password for each file that loads, whereas with IE and Mozilla (which are installed on the PCs) I only need to login once per browser instance.
Is there any way I can fix this problem?

Hai,

Can anybody tell me how to configure Flashgot to work with portable Flashget?

Thanks

I read the FAQ and it said it was OK to let FF auto update.. I have been getting a message to update to release DOT 04. But isn't that upgrade intended for non-portable versions only and I have to wait for the portable version?

thanks,

Hello guys,

Sorry if this has been asked before.

I have PFF in a shared folder, I also have two user accounts mine and my wifes, she connects to my pc via RDP and logs in with her user account.

I would like her to use the same PFF which is in the shared folder. The problem is the thie little chestnut 'parent.lock'. If I am browsing and she connects and wants to browse I keep gettig 'firefox is already running' etc.

I have tried 'AllowMultipleInstances' in the .ini file but this does not allow her to run it aswell as myself.

not only auto apdate does not work but when I check for update manually , firefox doesn't find 1.50.4 .
any ideas, someone, please ?

It didn't happen at first... but recently as I am using FF it will hang/freeze for time frames from 5-25 seconds at a time randomely. I can be doing anything and it will just hang/freeze and then come back and be fine. If I am putting in a password and it stalls and I continue entering digits, it will just spurt out all the password when it comes back.

Strange and annoying. Today I upgraded to the newest version of FF and it appears to still have a problem.

Every so often I get a file is corrupted message again regarding a particular file or two in my Portable FF folder on my USB driv

I just updated PFF to 1.5.0.4. Simple download, restart and check for compatability of extensions. (most extensions that are comp with 1.5.0.3 are tagged 1.5.*)

If you version does not notify you right away then you can go to Help and Check for Updates.

It works just fine.

Please don't ask John to release a PFF 1.5.0.4 today. I'm sure that is very annoying.

If I use my U3 with portable firefox on my work laptop, will there be any stray .JPG' s or other surfing information on the company laptop?

I go to banking sites and have a family site that I do not want to have any info that could be found on my laptop when traveling.

Kinda new to the portable thing, just ordered the U3 but I also know I could just use a Thumb drive but the price for a 2 gig U3 was pretty good
Thanks in advance for the info

hello everybody!

as a great fan of toe portable fox i'm using it very often. but i've got a problem with the settings - there are some errors i couldn't fix, and websearch only show me the way to this site

my problem:
the browser-settings weren't saved.

i use PFF on an usb-stick, on computers with various BS (win2000, winNT, winXP ...). but every time i plug my usb-device on a different computer, all settings i've made are gone.

means: the toolbar looks like "default", my theme is away, different toolbars are shown which i didn't want to, browser-preferences are "default" and so on.

Since this is a common problem and I've just now found the solution, here's how to fix the "extensions always showing up greyed out" problem that some FF users have encountered. Perhaps you could add it to the FAQ, John?

The solution is to close down Firefox, delete extensions.rdf from the profile directory, then restart FF. Once this has been done, the extensions will be available for use again.
