also, do you use different users for different stealth accounts? if so then why do you not install flash, java, silverlight etc?

Portable you can 100 folder in your UBS thump drive for 100 account and they don't share any information. MUST be open /run one at a time

I was using User account but not anymore

thanks and that is the plan - keep simple and keep on seperate accounts.

even by doing this, should I also use firefox portable aswell?

That is how I started out as well just to get my feet wet. Keeping everything seperate really helps. Once you get the hang of it then I would transfer over to portable FF way of doing things. I run well over a hundred high limit accounts this way now. But it is a great way of learning the ropes while you are still making mistakes.

Firefox Portable is a self contained version of Firefox, by that it means you can have 10-20 different Firefox browsers....1 firefox browser for each Stealth Account. The idea behind using this method is the following:

1. It allows you NOT to have so many user accounts
2. It allows for cookies to be stored separately in a self contained folder
3. Eliminates the need to Log Off/Log into User Accounts
4. Computer Runs smoother

I just started using portable Firefox , and it is so much better, and easier having one user account

But you need to be careful and make sure your logged out of one account completely before opening another

I'm also going to convert to this new stealth method...thanks to MM's numerous posts championing it.

I'm slow to change things, especially when they're going so well, but will give it a shot with a few accounts.

You guys are welcome, It's not for everyone and I do feel that it's something that should be done extremely carefully and slowly....As DmShark said, gotta make sure you close the previous instance of FP before opening the new one....

Using Firefox now too...not being asked to run Silverlight though

Is it possible to have each browser report different fonts using this method ?

[rsot]

Why concerned about different fonts?

For amazon? To reduce linking?

Last I checked it's based on your installed fonts (installed on your OS). If you want to show different fonts then you would need a virtual machine with different installed fonts.. there MIGHT be a plugins to spoof installed fonts with Firefox.. a Firefox plugin. They have plugins for everything.

I'm concerned because I prefer to respond to customers in both Arial and Comic Sans - but it all depends on which side of the bed I got out of earlier.

Yes GB - Maybe adding the plugin "user agent switcher" (amongst others) to every instance of FF portable would be enough to confuse the bots.

Interesting read about fingerprinting.

Apparently, ActiveX and Silverlight allow querying the CPU type and many other details.

Nice one.

Good thinking outside the box

[metatrade]

Do Java and ActiveX interact with portable FF the same way as they do with the fully installed version of FF ?
