Firefox Portable

Hi, I got a new flash drive and I want to install portable ff and this is what I thought to do

1. Download the zip from this site
2. Unzip it somewhere in HDD (C:)
3. Install extensions because HDD access is faster than Flash drive
4. Move the whole DIR to the flash drive

Can I do that? would it corrupt something?

Thanks

I normally use PFF on a Win2000 machine at work (that does not have regular Firefox installed). It works fine. When I try to use PFF with my thumb drive on any XP machine (that has Firefox on them), it does not start up. When I installed I took the default directory structure and haven't renamed anything. Any suggestions? TIA

Off the bat, I assure you that I have followed the instructions carefully on installing the shockwave plugin...but still I am having no joy. At no point does it give me the option of choosing the browser. Now, shockwave is installed on my laptop but it is not recognized by firefox - only IE. I am running Windows XP.

Any suggestions?

i've had this before, i run the launcher program, and firefox won't load. or, more accurately, when i check the task manager the process is running, but without a window. last time i had no clue why and eventually had to reinstall it to get it working again. this time it happened right after firefox crashed, so i think thats why it happened. im trying a few differant things right now, but does anyone know a way to fix this?

I would like to add the Flash Player to my portable firefox How can I ?

I noticed that Portable Firefox breaks the Live bookmarks. Also there is another problem. I have gmail and i have the google personal page set 2 my homepage
when i startup Firefox it says sign in button, so i click it and my page shows (didn't prompt for username or password) or if i press homepage again my homepage displays properly. It only happens on pFf startup. If i press homepage toolbar button, my google personal page shows up (it does not say sign it).

It is probably a Ff issue but i only use PFf.

Hi, I'd like to use Portable Firefox to run a fullscreen presentation from my usbkey.

So as to minimize user interaction, I'd like firefox to start in fullscreen mode.

Is there a way to do this?

When I installed all of Firefox's extensions, the drive letter of my thumb drive was E:. Now that I'm on a different machine and the drive letter is F:, all of my extensions don't run. They're still in the PortableFirefox\profile\extensions directory; it's just as though Firefox isn't reading the drive letter correctly. Is this a known problem, and what can I do to fix it?

I seem to have one of those slow flash drives [4 BG Sandisk Cruiser Mini] so FireFox is really slow. I'm trying some of the tweaks mentioned in this forum (rebuild/reduce extensions/etc.) but I'm wondering if i can handle this in a different way:

Can I install only a profile on my flash drive so when I plug it into a PC with Firefox already on it I'm good to go, using the program on the PC and the profile on the flash drive?

If I can do this, and someone advises me how, then I'll just use my flash drive profile at the office and keep the program on the flash drive for "emergency uses when I'm at a PC without FireFox.

Has anyone successfully installed the quicktime plug-in for portable FireFox and if so how do you achieve this as the plugin manager says that it has to be a manual install which directs me to download the iTunes setup file ?

Any ideas would be much appreciated.
