Firefox Portable

Generally, during use firefox tries to write to the host machine's $TEMP folder. I would like to disable this, to avoid any risk of an undelete spying. Most data that ends in $TEMP is temporal files, whose contents I don't know. But I don't want anyone to see I watch videogame speedrun videos (some people using those computers would not like that, think of Jack Thompson-y mentality, and also general privacy).

Hello,

The PortableApps FF2 allowed you to rename firefox.exe and then edit an ini file to specify its new name.

This was the only way I could get FF to run at work; without renaming the executable, the network antivirus program would delete firefox.exe from my memory stick when I tired to launch it.

I can't figure out how to rename the executable for FF3RC1 and still have FireFoxPortable.exe run it.

Thanks for your help.

I want to install a new one Firefox Portable to my other UFD, and then i just want to copy my password saved in my old firefox portable not other addons. How can i do?? Please help me..

Seeing as this is one of the bigger portable apps (as in most downloaded), and it's portable, wouldn't it be a nifty feature to have 'Profiles'...

, like proxy settings and stuff? I go from my school to my IT center, and I always have to change the proxy settings. That'd be a really nice feature to have.
(I don't know where to put this.)

I noticed a few things that PA forgot to change with the new firefox.

-Saves to the desktop by default
-Checks for updates to firefox (Both versions)
-I cant run the new beta and the old version at the same time, even though at home, I usually can run multiple firfox's at once.

Howdy all,

I just installed portable apps and wanted to find the best way to import all of my bookmarks, add-ons and stored passwords. I want my local machine's settings copied to the portable apps drive if this is possible. Thanks in advance.

Hey folks
I haven't been able to log into www.jooce.com
Think this is prob down to the college proxy,cos I cant get it to work on the locally installed IE7 client either, but the IE7 is not patched to latest flash, so thinking it may just be a flash setting or something.

Much thanks for any help

hello all!

i just downloaded firefox portable and am super excited because i'm on a huge backpacking trip and using tons of unfamiliar browsers and looking up bank accounts and such is a pretty scary thing. this will be the perfect tool!

i'm currently on a friends computer and have downloaded the app. but can't seem to get it to work. the browser opens up but just won't connect to the internet. but i can still surf internet explorer at the same time. what's going on?

i'm on a private home network so there are no firewalls or anything...

How can one get this portable? Is a portable version in the works?
Thanks.

I'm wanting to get my wife to start using Firefox Portable while at work.
She works as a typist and needs just a little help from the built-in dictionary/spell-checker to lower the "errors" she's been getting...

They have a strict policy about installing anything and/or making changes to company computers.

My question is, does FP leave ANYTHING behind (the FAQ only mentions the browser cache), in the registry for example?
