Firefox Portable

First thing, i cant log into these wonderful forums in the very thing they promote.....portable firefox

Second thing i was wondering if it is possible to make custom searches for the quicksearch bar, i would like one for play.com

When I want to use the Portable Firefox on my work and home, the proxy setup must differ per environment. I've tried to use a proxy.pac within the Automatic Proxy Configuration URL, but it didn't seem to work with a file URL (file://).

Has anybody else experience with these automatic proxy configuration on a USB drive using Portable Firefox??

Any help is appreciated!! Thanks in advance.

I just upgraded to 1.5 and I now have a strange box below my status bar. It has one ^ in the bottom left, but otherwise has no function and can't get rid of it. Any ideas?

Here is a screenshot of it: http://www.flickr.com/photos/41366059@N00/

Thanks.

First thanks to all the contributed to this project you made a great mobile product.

I can't seam to get the software update to stop checking everytime a new PFF window opens. It always checks and then i have to click finish, I have taken the checks out of the auto update options but still it continues checking. I don't notice this at home on regular FF but every new window in PFF it checks. Thanks for any input.

Hello.

Great site and applications. I am a fan.
(Since this is my first post, I thought I should mention this ).

I copied my settings from my previous windows embedded firefox version to the portable version. Most things go well, but one thing that is pretty unpractical is that popups wont open anymore (no ads, but the kind of popups you ask for, like edit boxes etc.).

Since I did not change the settings, and it previously worked, I guess it is not a setting somewhere but has something to do with the transfer to the portable version.

I checked the documentation here, but no result, so this post.

I haven't seen this topic raised, and can't find it as a known bug so here we go.
I can't view secure sites using portable Firefox.
anything with a https address eg https://mymail.com.au/
Returns an error page as below:
"Server not found
Firefox can't find the server at mymail.com.au.

* Check the address for typing errors such as
ww.example.com instead of
www.example.com

* If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network
connection.

* If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure
that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.

How I implement common PlugIns like Macromedia Flash or other very important PlugIns in the Firefox Portable? I have installed different Extension, but i was not able to implement Plugins, like the Flash one. Or several Multimedia Players?

Can anybody help me? Tobias

Why do some dialog boxes in Portable Firefox tools/options appear to be cut off
on the right side? An example is in the content tab both the advanced button and the colors button open
dialog boxes that appear to missing the right side. I have noticed this behavior in Portable Tbird also.
Trying to grab the right edge and expanding the box is not possible. There are options not available
because of this. Is anyone else aware of this problem? And can it be fixed? BTW I love these portable apps.
Keep up the good work, John.

PS using latest Portable FF 1.5 version

Below are links to screen shots illustrating this behavior.

When I close the browser it is not on the screen anymore but it is still under the tasks in the Task Manager. Only a hard "End Process" terminates the program. This is the same reason why a cannot delete plugins even after several restarts because for FireFox the browser is always active.

What I must make to change the language of portable FireFox to the Spanish? please to indicate step by step..
