Re: Portable firefox what is..
well I've seem to have made a fatal error at some point with these portable browsers. I would like to bring up an important understanding with the way these things work
At one point I noticed FF had not maintained my add-on settings when I copied the browsers over to a new machine. All individual browsers are located in one folder - and are named for their corresponding email accounts. When/if these browsers DO keep LSO flash cookies when adobe is NOT disabled in the add-on settings, where are they kept? would they all share being located within the same folder?
I had a routine of setting my homepages with IPBurger, and would usually just check gmail from there as needed. This would allow me to not have to constantly change IP's between accounts while I would manage email notifications, since I was not accessing the vital ebay/paypals themselves. In the event I would log into ebay/paypal, of course an IP switch and log/check would take place. But on MANY occasions, I would go straight from opening the browser, to loading the IPBurger homepage, then going directly to gmail (images are of course disabled) and then properly quitting the browser.
I have been very diligent with this procedure since october with seemingly great success. Yesterday many of my personals went down at the same time- ALL linked. All accounts had zero problems or issues. Luckily I don't create accounts using the portable browser method
Regarding the LSOs and possibly even the browser itself, does ebay/paypal have the ability to hide beacons even though their site wouldn't be accessed in that session?
This is also on a MAC - are mac portable browsers in any way different?
