Thank you for your feedback, but I still can't repeat the problem you are having. I will do more tests. With regard to PortableApps, I was just sharing my happy experience: I make continuous changes to the settings of my browser, so with repeated installs and uninstalls. Using, instead, a portable version of the browser I just delete the old folder, and unzip the downloaded file again (such versions don't install on the computer and therefore not affect any previous installations of the program). I use that downloaded from PortableApps but there is also portablefreeware.com If you are interested, here you will find the definition of portable application http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portable_application I repeat, I'm just reporting a method by which I am fine, I'm not making advertising.
