Firefox Portable

Maybe this is a feature....

... but when I shut down Firefox I can still see firefox.exe running. If I disconnect the drive and simulate a shutdown of the computer by killing firefox.exe and the reconnect the USB drive and start up Firefox it gives me the warning that Firefox did not shut down properly and the "Restart session" and "Start new session" buttons.

Why doesn't firefox.exe end when I close PortableFirefox? Is this a bug under Win2k or is it doing this on WinXP as well?.

Hi-nice program but there is no email button you can add-why? I am using this on my local drive so I can test newer versions of firefox without installing...

Hi Everyone - I am making an "Electronic Brochure" on CD I downloaded the "ini" to enable firefox to read from a CD tweeked thi INI file "local home=" works just fine opens site NO ACTIVE X warning
HOWEVER when you navigate to the "video tutorials" page and click the link for the .wmv files firefox says "can't find///E/Video_Tutorials/settinggoals.wmv

I have tried every configuration I can think of ...

Has anyone else ever been able to make firefox open windows media player with a video?

If so how?

I just downloaded firefox potable and followed the instructions for bringing the setting from the version of firefox on my home computer to my portable version. Everything worked great except now my origanl copy of firefox has lost all of its exstensions and won't connect to the internet because it says the proxy is blocking it.

Is there any way to get it back to the way it used to be because I had some 40 extension installed and I really don't want to have to go back and reinstall them.

I updated PFF once but I had to delete and reinstall PFF and can't remember when I did before and it does not install directly yet and "YAHOO" ain't responded to my request yet can some one give me the xpi file for it!

Hi People,
I've d/l ffp directly to my thumb drive. The d/l file size shows 25KB instead of 6MB.
Upon opening the file, a DOS prompt window along with a seperate error message popup titled "16 bit MS-DOS Subsystem" with "The NTVDM CPU has encountered an illegal instruction. Choose 'Close' to terminate application.".
I've an option to ignore or close the app. Choosing 'Ignore' will only see the dos prompt running randomly in the dos window.
Anyone has any comments to this situation.
BTW, its the same for Thunderbird Portable.

Hi there,

first of all I want to say how great the portable solution is.

We plan to develop a CD-ROM that will use Firefox Portable. Via autostart we launch a custom SplashScreen, where the user can choose a language for the content to be shown with FFP.

My question: is it possible to say FFP to have different homepages depending on the language the user chose? Remember, this will be a CD-ROM, so no chance to write any prefs or something...

Thank you and best regards!

I downloaded and installed Firefox Portable several moths ago, but it has since stopped working. Before I updated it, nothing would happen at all, now it just crashes after a few seconds.
I usually took the USB key out of the computer without closing the browser and it would reload the last session before it stopped working.

Me gusta mucho el Firefox Portable, ya que puedes llevarlo contigo a todos lados, incluyendo tus Marcadores!!! Gracias muchachos por esete programa!!

Si alguno de ustedes pueden dejar las ventajas que han encontrado en este programa, seria muy bueno.

I have a question with using TrueCrypt and Firefox Portable together that some people may find useful.
