Firefox Portable

There is no internet connection to use Portable Firefox 1.5, but is it OK to use Firefox 1.5. (Both are using "direct connection to the internet")

Thanks for any advice to fix the problem.

First of all thank you very much for this great application.
Now I use PortableFirefox from HDD as standard windows application and it's pretty nice way to keep everything what I need in one easy-to-copy directory.
The only thing which I couldn't realize is how can I open some html or even mht (I installed the appropriate extension) file with PFF doing this with right-click mouse menu and Open with... option. The default browser is still Internet Explorer. Is it possible to have some command line parameters including filename upon PortableFirefox.exe startup?

Pretty much exactly what the title says. Portable Firefox is not recording the history of what pages i go to at all. I looked and didnt see this is in Known Issues, anyone else have this problem?

I am running PortableFirefox1.5 on a fairly old USB Memorystick. It works like a dream but when I shut down Firefox it can take up to 45 sec for all write activity to stop. Is there any way of reducing the writes required after Firefox is shutdown ? It becomes a bit of a nuisance when playing around with extensions/themes & having to stop & restart Firefox very often.

I have tried running Port. Firefox of both my Server Memory and from my USB Drive, and for some reason on the University Network my extensions are not thier, while if I use the Port. Firefox from the USB drive on anouther compter (Before and after) they are thier and work fine.
What can I do to avoid this, esp. since 90% of my computer time is on these computers?
Thank You

Hello.

I use PFF in several places and extensions like "SwitchProxy" and "Yahoo! Mail Notifier" are really helpful.

I tried PFF 1.5 but i'm experiencing some problems with proxy handling.
"SwitchProxy" button acts a bit weird... there are no proxy names on it and there is a proxy password form constantly poping up! Sometimes it pops up 6 and 7 times while a webpage is loading and everytime "Yahoo! Mail Notifier" checks for new mail! First i thought it could be a problem of "SwitchProxy", maybe a compatibility problem between "SwitchProxy" and PFF 1.5. I disabled "SwitchProxy" and installed "xyzproxy". The problem persists. The proxy password hasn't changed recently and is correct.

Any idea for adding Openoffice,org 2 Plugin for Portable firefox?
which same as ie

Anyone have any tips to speed up Portable Firefox?

I've found 1.5 to be significantly faster (interface-wise as well as internet browsing speed), but does anyone have any notes? I was considering upping the cache, but that might actually make things slowing because you'd be adding all that cache data to the portable drive.

Is it okay to use the password manager inside portablefirefox when running it from a usb flash drive? I saw this under the copying local files section of this website:

"When you start Portable Firefox for the first time, be sure to turn off disk cache, password saving and history if you're using a non-hard drive portable device."

I also run an external password manager (KeePass).
Any help would be useful. Thanks.

Is there a way I could download a previous version of portable firefox? 1.5 doesn't currently work with my extensions and I'd like try some other versions. This is a constant problem w/firefox.
Thanks.

Great prog though. I'm about to move and am already dependant on it.

Thanks.
