Firefox Portable

Is there a way I could download a previous version of portable firefox? 1.5 doesn't currently work with my extensions and I'd like try some other versions. This is a constant problem w/firefox.
Thanks.

Great prog though. I'm about to move and am already dependant on it.

Thanks.

Hi,

looks like using ExecWait for Firefox 1.5 no longer works. It was ok with 1.0.7. I guess it must be starting up a child process and then quiting or something. Not sure of a way around this.

I tried to install greasesmonkey in Portable Firefox 1.5. I received an error message. Will Greasemonkey work with Portable Firefox? Any ideas or suggestions?

As required by law:

Awsome job, great idea!

FYI:

I have found I can get the compressed portable_firefox_1.5_en-us.zip down from 6,643,139 bytes to 5,258,684 bytes using Tugzip, http://www.tugzip.com/ ,and 7z compression.

This is a significant savings especially for download bandwidth.

Results

portable_firefox_1.5_en-us.zip
Original (download from sourceforge) - 6,643,139 bytes
7z Ultra Compression - 5,258,684
7z & a Self-Extractor - 5,343,676 (79% current file size) 1.29MB saved

I would recommend considering use of 7z and self-extractor to lower your bandwidth overhead.

After running portable firefox 1.5 for the first time and updating some extensions then restarting portable firefox, an alert pops up saying another instance of firefox is already running and prevents firefox from opening. I have checked running processes and firefox.exe is not listed and I have ejected my external hard drive and it still gives that alert.

Edit: The same alert of another firefox instance even exists on another pc where portable firefox has never been run on before.

First of all congratulations for your new website! (and sorry for my awful english)
It´s been a wonderful surprise and permanent additon for the bookmarks).

I just wanted to ask if begining with 1.5 (about 16 Mb vs. the 8Mb of the RC3) the file compression (.exe, .jar, etc..) has been definitively discarded for the future releases of Portable Firefox due to the update system or if you may ever consider to relese a compressed version (even if it would lack the option to autoupdate).

first off, great work. i've used the portable versions of your software while deployed to iraq and it was a fantastic experience (the apps, not the deployment =-)

i have found that if firefox is installed locally on a machine and then the portable version is run off a stick/ipod/whatever, that the local profile info is used and not the profile on the portable device. is there a workaround for this?

I want to donate some money to support portable FireFox project but the button does not seem to be working in FF or IE.

In v1.0 you could change the language from US-en to your own language, is this still possible in this new version? Because when I replace the en-US.jar and the en-US.manifest (firefox\chrome) files I get a error. I first rename the files (nl.jar and nl.manifest) I got from FF to en-US.jar and en-US.manifest and then I overwrite the files from Portable FF, but then Portable FF wont launch anymore. This was what you have to do with v1.0, I thought, but that doesn’t work anymore.

I love portable firefox, but I'm addicted to many features like: form info, history. While I realize that we don't want to save these to flash drive (wear) it should be possible to save these to harddrive of each local machine I use. I realize that the data wouldn't be replicated from machine to machine - but it would better than losing the feature altogether.
