Firefox Portable

As many of you already know, there are Community Builds of Mozilla Firefox available. These builds are optimized by alternating the way Firefox runs using different code of other such methods. The way PortableApps.com optimizes their builds is by using AppCompactor.

Note: This is not the same Firefox profile as the one indicated in this topic; it's the one on my flash drive, which was never used in that situation/test.

Is it just me, or does Amazon.com not like Firefox (Portable?) too much?

My wife's reading Stephen King's Dark Tower series, and asked me to order the second book online. I'm like, OK, fire up Firefox, hit Amazon.com... I got this funny "Associates Stripe" on the top that was acting funny, so I tried to disable it - crash. Went back in, figured I'd leave it alone, pulled up the page for the second Dark Tower book... crash.

At about line 477, below the "CheckIfRemoveLocalFiles:" label, I don't understand why there is a Pop $R0 command. Can somebody tell me why ?

Lets start with a screenshot.

As you can see, FireFox is open but there is no icon visible in the superbar. It disappears like 20 times a day but I'm unable to find a way to reproduce it. However, it reappears as soon as I click on it. But sometimes (maybe if the icon disappears while mimized) I can only bring it back with Alt+Tab.

There's something I don't like about ff 3.5.
You see, I usually copy a tab by dragging while holding Ctrl. This is useful when you don't want to leave a page but want to do something else on the same site, for example a search.
I suppose there are other ways to do that, but I was comfortable copying tabs the way I mentioned and now it's gone!
I'm sure that somebody knows how to fix it.
Thanks for your support.

As explain in the title, I want to skip at the check or update for my addons or extensions.

In fact, I have no extensions on my FirefoxPortable but when some are installed on Firefox (1.5, 2.0 and more) on the PC where the FirefoxPortable is launching, it ask me to update my extensions.

Please help me.

Thanks

Hi,

I'm using FirefoxPortable and I have some trouble. In fact, I want to modify the localstore.rdf to have a special window size but it doesn't take in account.

Moreover, if I have a firefox (2.0 or 3.0) install on the PC and I launch my FirefoxPortable, FirefoxPortable ask me to update my extensions (I have no extensions in FirefoxPortable) and I would like to not have this question because it depends of all PCs and My firefoxPortable have to be the same.

this is what I have in my App/Firefox/defaults/pref/firefox.js

pref("app.update.auto", false);

I would like to block some adds that are annoying on some of the websites I go to. Normally I would just add the domain name to the HOST file and set the IP to 0.0.0.0 or 127.0.0.1. I did this with FF Portable but the adds are still coming up. Is FFP accessing a different file or bypassing the hosts file all together?

Also, since I don't want to mess with someone elses computer settings can this be done within FFP's settings?
