Do you have any tips on running firefox from a removable drive? I haven't tried it yet but people here at work say they run it from their jump drives.

No. I haven't tried that either, but I've seriously considered checking out how well it works. Personally, I prefer Knoppix for that kind of thing. It doesn't work if you want to save bookmarks and cookies though.

You can download a portable version of Firefox and Thunderbird (e-mail) at http://johnhaller.com/jh/mozilla/

I have used both programs from a USB drive and they work well. You *should* be able to copy your existing profile into the portable version (I am not sure if all extensions and themes are compatible). I have an extension for Thunderbird that minimizes it to the system tray that will not work on portable Thunderbird, it needs a particular .dll on {win dir}/system but besides that I have had no problem.

There is a website here that has the binaries. Works great. Allows you to take your entire install with you. The so called exploit, isn't. It just grows your history.dat file. Who uses history anyway. I have all Firefox installs set with no history and dump cookies when shutdown.
