Direct Connect Setting Save
Every time I FFP I have to change the setting to direct connect to the Internet. Is there a way to save that setting? By the way, I run it from a cd.

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

I've downloaded some extensions and installed successfully, restarted Firefox but they have not been loaded (still remaining the message "This add-on will be installed when Firefox is restarted" in Add-ons window) but they have when I copied Firefox Portable to hard drive.
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?
How do I get the QFA into FxP?
The plugin installer can't detect the browser installation directory. Or, if Firefox is already installed on the host machine, it will likely install the plugin to the regular Fx installation.

There is an alternate validation method (browser independent), so this is just a heads-up.
I just got the FirefoxPortable to launch by renaming the exe file to word. Now, why is it that when I have the Firefox from my PC open and go to open the portable version I get a message saying that Firefox is already open. Is there a way to make the whole program look like Microsoft Word?
Hello all.
I've been using Portable Firefox for some time now, and I've always been impressed. I'm sort of a portable apps junkie. I just prefer minimalist software that does the job right without alot of hassle or garbage left behind. But lately I've had problems that have me befuddled.
Obviously I've doing something wrong. I've done something or have missed something, so I'd like to ask for help.
I had no problems with 1.5.0.7. It ran like a dream. I used DefaultMyPFF to set it to the default browser. No issues. Then I get version 2.0. It runs fine, but when I try to set it as the default browser using the same technique, I get errors. Everytime I open a webpage, not only does the page open correctly, but I get a Windows message saying that it can't find the file in question. As in "Windows cannot find, "http://portableapps.com" ". Very weird.
Hello this is a really weird incident. I use Portable Firefox 2.0 on a seperate partition from my windows partition. I downloaded the latest release of portable firefox from its main page yesterday and created a new profile with it, I only copied over my existing bookmarks file. Everything was working fine.
Today I installed Vista over my Windows partition, full install, but now firefox has some weird problems. My bookmarks are not all showing, only those in subfolders. Firefox forgot my homepage and other settings, and my extensions forgot their settings. From what I understand my prefs file was completely erased.
