Ever since I started to use Firefox as my browser, I now stick with. From my experience, Firefox loads faster than IE (on my laptop). Yesterday I was reading past issue of Majalah PC and found something new about the browser. Its a portable browser. By portable it means one can save the browser on to a portable device such as thumbdrive, CD-RW, zip drive or external hard disk and carry it around with you. It is convenient if you travel a lot whereby you can carry your browser especially if you keep bookmarks.
I downloaded the Portable Firefox 2.0.0.5 and saved it to my 4 Gigabyte thumb drive. The new feature with this portable browser is that you can save webpages as image and not as webpages. This is so with the Save Page as Image function. This version can also be integrated with PortableApps Suite. This application includes unique features such as pop up blocker, tabbed webpage, integrated search, automatic update etc. Another important feature is that this browser does not leave any personal information on the PC that you had used.
I have tried this application and think I will switch to this browser since I move around a lot (even using my laptop). I downloaded lots of pictures from the internet and since this browser can save page as image, I don't have to save picture by picture bust just save the whole website and edit them later. However to be able to use the Save page as Image you have to download the addons here.
File size is just 6Mb when downloading and 25Mb when you install. It is compatible with all version of Windows OS such as Windows 98, ME,2000,XP and Vista.
