Firefox Portable

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..

Hello, I want to start Firefox Portable from a CD without being asked, whether I want to copy the files to the HD. Is this possible?

Hi

A few weeks back my extensions stopped working on "foreign" (ie, not my own) computers. They just don't appear. This is quite annoying as I am a university lecturer and I show my students how to use many of the extensions, but I now have to switch to the local installation of Firefox because I can't access any of my extensions when running my Firefox Portable away from home. I also lose my spelling dictionaries (I only have access to US English when away from home). Any ideas? The extensions all seem to be installed on my portable hard drive.

I've noticed that the Places feature to autocomplete when typing in the address bar doesn't work in the portable version. A little testing revealed that this is because history is disabled. I think that the core issue is a Mozilla one and have filed a bug. (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=406606)

If I have Firefox 2.0.0.11 Portable on my drive and I installed Firefox 3 Beta 1. Before I ran it, I was wondering if having two different portable editions of Firefox will interfere with each other. I know it will hag a lost of space on my drive, but will there be any other negative effects of having two portable version Firefox on my drive?
Thanks for your help,
Mike

Firefox's updater has a bug where a portable or secondary install of Firefox will overwrite the locally installed Firefox's registry settings when version update is performed. It appears this bug was introduced within the last few point releases of Firefox 2.x. It's filed as Bug 406335 within Bugzilla. Please vote for this bug if you have a Bugzilla account.

What Goes Wrong

I've found with the recent versions of FFP, auto-update causes some of the local FF references--namely, the Start menu Internet link and Add/Remove programs entry--to point to FFP.

The first time this happened I was very confused, as after I removed my JumpDrive and attempted to launch my local copy of FF from the top of the Start menu, Windows gave me an error. I've since figured out the problem, and it seems the only solution is to update FFP *first*, then update the local copy. Either that or reinstall local FF after updating FFP.
