Firefox Portable

ClamAV detect Win.Trojan.Spora-7724442-0 virus in latest Firefox Portable releases:
FirefoxPortable_103.0_English.paf.exe
FirefoxPortable_103.0.1_English.paf.exe
FirefoxPortable_103.0.2_English.paf.exe
FirefoxPortable_104.0_English.paf.exe

It finds it in:
.\Firefox Portable\App\Firefox\xul.dll: Win.Trojan.Spora-7724442-0 FOUND
.\Firefox Portable\App\Firefox64\xul.dll: Win.Trojan.Spora-7724442-0 FOUND

Could anyone please confirm this is a false-positive (i.e. there is no actual virus in those files)?

When an application is restarted due to change settings within Firefox, is it restarted via the Firefox Portable loader? However, I have a feeling that this restart is done without through the Firefox Portable loader.
Please let me know if this is true.

My employer has now implemented a Microsoft check to ensure that we only run an up-to-date and supported browser. The portable apps version of Firefox fails this check. The alert message states that Chrome, Edge and Firefox are supported apps and that Firefox needs to be newer than version 91.
However I checked help in the version of Portable Firefox that I have and it states it is at version 103.0.1. It shouldn't fail the check therefore as far as I can tell.

I just downloaded FirefoxPortable_103.0_English.paf.exe from PortableApps.com. The web page shows SHA256 Hash: 7c4bf6c69abb778ae7f64130e8873246ffcc117c4f8bdc9d8f0cede4731365a8 (English).

My local check gives a SHA256 hash of 31F738DE4B2E668A45F9DD24356ED377AC5ED38B1CE9E4AC755B0C513AAD6C41

When I click on the PortableApps Antivirus Scan link (which passes the 7c4... hash ), VirusTotal gives me a Not Found, but when I search VirusTotal using the 31f...hash, it comes up with:

Is a PortableApps Firefox 102 ESR in the works? ETA?

Thank you!

Hi.
for some reason, the Mozilla products update takes forever and it's impossible to finish, forcing me to cancel the update. This happens still 2 weeks, for Thunderbird and for Firefox. I have a 100MB internet cable connection, but this downloads goes 30B/s....

After extracting the 91.11 .paf , the Firefox app directory is empty. The download size of the paf is half of what it usually is.

Second time after updating all portableapps , firefox did not start , giving just an error message:

Couldn’t load XPCOM

It happened first time with 101.0 and today with 101.0.1

What I found out to make it running again:

downloaded FirefoxPortable_101.0.1_English.paf.exe from https://portableapps.com/apps/internet/firefox_portable
extracted with 7-zip
copied all the folder and overwritten the original in portableapps folder

Hi,

Portable Firefox with user.js does not save update setting "Check for updates but let you choose to install them" when browser is restarted.

There have been a few times when I updated Firefox Portable through the browser itself. But the vast majority of the time, I use the PortableApps program to update it. Is either fine, or should I only do it through the PortableApps program? The reason I ask is because it would be faster to use the browser instead because it usually takes 1-2 days before the PA program prompts for an update. And if I did it through the portable browser, I probably wouldn't ever have to launch PA since Firefox Portable is pretty much the only PA program that I use.
