Firefox Portable

Corruption! (in data, not politics)

For some reason, some files on my USB drive became corrupted. I ran chkdsk, and that recovered most of the files, but some were deleted! The really bad thing about it is that the prefs.js file for Fx is gone, and while I was able to get most of my preferences set, some will not stay.
I can't customize my toolbar. I can change things, but I'm back to default when I open Fx again. I made sure that prefs.js and user.js were writable. It's quite odd because my status bar icons were out of order, and I was able to rearrange them and keep the settings, and I was also to change the theme, which also stays.

I am really pleased to see Bon Echo available on portable downloads but its now out of fashion, there is a sleeker new version to get. Can anyone tell me when this will be available to download thanks.

Slow navigation?

I've just reinstalled Portable Fx for work purposes; I do work both in the office and at home, and it would be useful to be able to keep my settings with me.

I seem to be experiencing lagginess when switching between tabs and such. I've not experienced this with older versions I tried out. I'm thinking that maybe the ports on my machine are USB 1.1, and I think I've been using 2.0 before. This could be causing an issue, I suppose, but does anyone have any possible fixes for this? I'm using Portable Fx v1.5.0.3

Cheers!
