Norton and sophos picked up a win32 rundll.exe virus after downloading firefox portable.
I was modifying the NSI for the launcher for another program, when I noticed this:
ReadEnvStr $APPDATAPATH "APPDATA"
Followed later by
IfFileExists "$APPDATA\Mozilla\Firefox\*.*" CheckForCrashReports
and
IfFileExists "$APPDATA\Mozilla\Firefox\Crash Reports\*.*" "" CheckIfRunning
$APPDATA is undeclared... I think you meant to put $APPDATAPATH.
Whatever happened to that?
Hi,
I am using the Firefox portable for running our application directly off the CD. The proof of concept work fine except that because its running of a CDR it needs to have runLocally set to true. this means firefox copies the firefox folder which is like 25MB to the temp folder. As my application is not going to be changing any firefox properties or settings, i really dont meed it to run locally but the application doesnt let me do that ir I am running from a CD. Is there a way to prevent it or work around it?
Thanks,
Arun
Hi,
I use a windows Terminal Server, with one user but multiple separates sessions allowed.
I use firefox with one profile whith all informations necessary for this user.
If i launch firefox under more than one session it is not possible because i only have one profile. Profile is locked after the first software start.
Sorry for the not so technical subject, but I have no idea how to describe my problem. I don't believe I've done anything different over the past few days but all of a sudden, I'm getting these blank boxes appear when I mouse over objects/pictures. I know that this box is supposed to contain a file name, but I just can't see that information. I've viewed the same pages with IE and I don't have any problems.
Any ideas?
I have a modified version of Firefox (colours changed on toolbars, menus removed, etc) that I would like to redistribute for educational purposes. It states so explicitly when you launch the software.
Everything is set and ready to go except for 1 little problem:
CD drive letters change on different computers. For example, it is D:\ at home, E:\ on my old system, and it could be F:\ or G:\ at school! I cannot make a D:\index.xhtml file as my home page because then what if the drive isn't called D:\?
Hello; my first post. Is it there any way to upload FF portable into a hosting service and run it up there?. Any idea or suggestion?
If this is possible, may I use also the extensions of my choice? (I'm thinking in POW for instance). Thanks!
Hi all, i'm new to forums & portable apps but recently downloaded PFF onto a USB stick & thought i should get the same bookmarks launching regardless of what PC I use, but when I use a PC other than the one I installed PFF onto my USB I only get the default bookmarks. I've checked FirefoxPortable\Data\profile & my bookmarks are there but as IE icon (guess I must have imported them via IE), is this the problem? I'm not that technical so hope somebody can explain in simple terms. cheers
just wondering if theres a folder on the installation directory thats for cache cause i was gonna set my cache to like 100 mb but im not sure if you can have cache with the portable app..
