Firefox Portable

I was wondering.... PFF is the zipped official Firefox+the "Portable Launcher" program, isnt'it?

So... can I just delete the "Firefox (portable)\firefox" content and replace it with the 1.5.0.1 binaries? Will I loose any data / break the compatibility?

Thanks!

I see that Skype have released a toolbar for firefox (and also IE) that allows you to place skype calls from with firefox:

I was wondering if anyone knew whether this could be made to work with Portable firefox (if so how) and thus whether it makes for an easy way to create a portable skype...

This is day two of my Portable Firefox experience, and I have to say it is excellent. I can now have a consistant Firefox environment at work and at home.

The only thing I cannot get to work for me is Spellbound. It installs, and so does the dictionary. It just isn't in the right click menu.

I'm on Windows in both environs, and that is just the nature of the work I do. Not a choice. So I do not know if it is alright on Linux or Mac.

Other than that Portable Firefox has not given me a single problem. From install to useage, it has been a breeze.

Thanks in advance for any help or guidance provided,

I am running 1.5.0.1 on a usb drive. I find it VERY slow when opening new tabs, there can often be a 30sec gap in time. It it espically slow with image laden pages. I was using deerpark before this and do not remember this problem.
Any suggestions?

Is this really the case? Is there a way to lessen this?

I have been using Portable Firefox for some time now. I am constantly using company computers or internet shops to access the web via Portable Firefox on my USB Stick. Are there any open source programs available to secure my web interactions from any Key Logging Programs or Administrator privileges that may gather sensitive data (as my online banking), while I am surfing?

Part 2 is it possible to use a Portable Virtual Keyboard while entering Sensitive data on websites to protect User Names, Passwords, and Account Details from the host computer while using Portable Firefox?

Primedius: WebTunnel or Stealth Surfer for example!

Hi everybody.

I juste want to tell you that the language packs' links are dead. I can't download any especially the French one. I've tried the "hack" but it didn't work (my local and portable are 1.5.0.1).

See you

I get this alert when using PortableFirefox. I am also having problems downloading upgrades such as Flash player, recieving this message.

"C:\docume~1\user\LOCALS~1\Temp\r9cy46pp.exe could not be saved, because the source file could not be read.

Hey,

I know this is a common problem that people cant install some mods, or cant install *.xpi files etc. However, nobody seems to have given an exact error they get. I installed PFF onto my personal drive in college (I cant install anything anywhere else). However, on launching an extension or skin install half way through the procedure this error appears;

"Firefox could not install the file at [URL to extension] because: script error".

Sometimes its installed after I re-boot tho.

Any ideas? Its the same error when I go to "File > Open" and launch the xpi file I saved on the PC.

Hi, I have just started all this nomadic behaviour, simply because I am ditching my PC and am having to think of ways to get by using, eugh, public computers. FF on a USB seems good to me, especially with all the etx.!!!

Problem is IE's tools menu is blocked from access, and I cannot load the page in FF because I do not know the proxy settings. I have been scouring the net for a tool that can posibly get that info externally.

Can anyone help?

Thanks,
