Inspired by useful Cross-platform Portable Firefox 3 ( and by PortableApps.com (win), here is the popular Mozilla Firefox web browser packaged so you can carry around with you on any portable device, USB thumb drive, iPod, portable hard drive, memory card, other portable device (also on your internal hard disk) as long as it has 31 MB of free space and use on any Mac OS X computer, taking your bookmarks, extensions, history, cookies, and saved passwords with you.
1. Drag the "Portable Firefox OS X" folder to your portable device, USB thumb drive, iPod, portable hard drive, memory card, other portable device (also to your internal hard disk) as long as it has 31 MB of free space.
2. Clicking "OPEN Portable Firefox OSX" will launch in the background an AppleScript that will open Firefox from your portable device, wait a while before Firefox start. (I've experienced 1 or 2 minutes for the first run).
You can download the "OPEN Portable Firefox.app" AppleScript only if you wish to save your previous Portable Firefox, without need to dowload all script and app bundle you already have.
If you wish to use your bookmarks, extensions, history, cookies, and saved passwords you already have on your computer, copy the content of the folder "/Users/
