Firefox Portable

Hello.

Great site and applications. I am a fan.
(Since this is my first post, I thought I should mention this ).

I copied my settings from my previous windows embedded firefox version to the portable version. Most things go well, but one thing that is pretty unpractical is that popups wont open anymore (no ads, but the kind of popups you ask for, like edit boxes etc.).

Since I did not change the settings, and it previously worked, I guess it is not a setting somewhere but has something to do with the transfer to the portable version.

I checked the documentation here, but no result, so this post.

I haven't seen this topic raised, and can't find it as a known bug so here we go.
I can't view secure sites using portable Firefox.
anything with a https address eg https://mymail.com.au/
Returns an error page as below:
"Server not found
Firefox can't find the server at mymail.com.au.

* Check the address for typing errors such as
ww.example.com instead of
www.example.com

* If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network
connection.

* If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure
that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.

How I implement common PlugIns like Macromedia Flash or other very important PlugIns in the Firefox Portable? I have installed different Extension, but i was not able to implement Plugins, like the Flash one. Or several Multimedia Players?

Can anybody help me? Tobias

Why do some dialog boxes in Portable Firefox tools/options appear to be cut off
on the right side? An example is in the content tab both the advanced button and the colors button open
dialog boxes that appear to missing the right side. I have noticed this behavior in Portable Tbird also.
Trying to grab the right edge and expanding the box is not possible. There are options not available
because of this. Is anyone else aware of this problem? And can it be fixed? BTW I love these portable apps.
Keep up the good work, John.

PS using latest Portable FF 1.5 version

Below are links to screen shots illustrating this behavior.

When I close the browser it is not on the screen anymore but it is still under the tasks in the Task Manager. Only a hard "End Process" terminates the program. This is the same reason why a cannot delete plugins even after several restarts because for FireFox the browser is always active.

What I must make to change the language of portable FireFox to the Spanish? please to indicate step by step..

I've looked around, but I can't find out how to do that. Anyone willing to help?

It would be very useful for tech support if Portable Firefox could run from a non-writable media like a CDR, writing its settings to %temp% (don't keeping them).

Thanks for the good work!

Hello and thank you for your Portable Firefox, it's great. I'm using v1.5 and I've noticed a small bug. When clicking on any download hyperlinks on webpages, I receive a Windows error.

"C:\DOCUME~1\MyUsername\LOCAL~1\Temp\filename.exe could not be saved, because the source file could not be saved. Try again later or contact the server administrator."

For some odd reason it wants to save the file on the hard drive inside the Temp folder. This error does not occur with the old v1.0.7. I have checked in Tools, Options, Downloads, Download Folder, and the configuration is set to "Ask me where to save every file". This is the same configuration that I have always used in v1.0.7 and it downloads files ok.

I'd first like to thank you for making these apps portable. I'm working on some projects with USB drives and this comes in very handily. I'll post more about my projects soon.
Now for the issues...
Why isn't PFF1.5 executables and dll's compressed? I compressed them myself and shrunk it down about 40%. Less USB access = faster startup

Also, I have my profile and other personal settings in a seperate directory. It took me a while, but I figured out that I had to move the PortableFirefox.ini to the same location as PortableFirefox.exe and for the ProfileDirectory setting, I had to use "..\personal\FFProfile" to specify the directory which contains my profile.
