Firefox Portable

In the interests of faster operations and maybe being able to not disable features that would otherwise shorten USB life, I thought it might be worthwhile to copy the whole software temporarily to the HD of a visited computer. Could be easily done with a batch file, copying to the "my documents\music" folder, for example, which most Windows setups have. When done, one could copy everything back again in order to save changes from the session.

Is there any problem or downside in doing this?

Thanks

I just updated FireFox portable by mistake, using the autoupdater. I was typing at the time and the updater came on just as I pressed space. So it updated. Does anyone know if this will cause any ill effects in FireFox portable?

when is Firefox Portable 2.0.0.8 out ? ???
Developer work best ....

Any idea when a new version of Firefox Portable will be available? Firefox now has two minor releases.

I've seen the messages about 2.0.0.7 and the risks of using FF's auto-updater to update the Portable version.

Hello!
I'm trying to configure FFP to start with a local html file. I tried
LocalHomepage=start.html
in FirefoxPortable.ini but it has no effect. I know the INI file is read because if I do
AdditionalParameters=start.html

It's possible. I'm working on a way to fully automate the process (I just need some good docs on the batch language). I have a semi-automatic batch file already.

The problem is actually that UPX can't compress and decompress to produce the exact same file with W32 binaries (however, once a file is compressed and decompressed, the resulting file can be compressed and decompressed to produce that exact file), and that the small autoupdate difference file can't be applied to the modified files.
So here's how it works:

Just wanted people to know, it looks like the foxmarks plugin works nicely with portable firefox. This is great news! Now I have virtually the same firefox browser wherever I go, with all of my bookmarks in place. With the Corsair GT flash drive portable apps work just as fast as they would off a hard drive. Don't even notice the difference.

I'd like to know which files I have to copy to localize my FFportable
Or which settings i have to set.
Thanks

I am using adlock plus and ive got it working Ok
But I cannot seem to get it to block Adobe Flash Adds
Can any one please tell me how to do this …. ?

Many Thanks

I use FirefoxPortable on my USB. Today it complained that it can't resolve a problem with security config files. The master password couldn't be changed, etc.
Guessing that some files on the USB are corrupted (probably unplugged the stick at the wrong time), I tried reinstalling/updating the program. The installer said that it can't overwrite firefox.exe (turned out it was read-only). On launch, FF still said it couldn't do anything about password saving part of itself.
