What do you think about Firefox Portable? Well, for me its pretty good because you can bring it anywhere with your iPod, USB Flash Drive, CD and other storage devices. Since I used it, browsing with Firefox is even more easier because you can bring it wherever you want, without even installing the whole thing to your PC!

Portable Firefox has come in tons of handy for me on my school's computers, since they haven't got Firefox installed and have Deep Freeze. It is very slow starting up, though.

I quite like Firefox Portable, and I've got it on one of my flash drives. I never actually use it, though, as most of the time I'm only using my own computer (and I hardly ever bookmark anything). Really handy to have Firefox in your pocket though, just in case you come across a computer without it or want/need your favourite Add-on.

The only problem with it is the starting time (which is a problem with Firefox anyway) although the splash screen reassures you that it is actually loading (perhaps "not portable" Firefox would benefit from a simple splash screen?).

Overall it is handy etc., but I haven't used it enough to see any other useful functions.
