Do you know if it can be a problem to use in some cafes?? I know that Pop Pop is very protective (rightly so :D :D ) about his equipment & I think it is impossible to download programs on his kit. Could you still use this app on a thumb drive in those circumstance, do you know??


I'm not really sure what you mean, but yes it can be used on any computer. Pop's concern is thumb drives that have viruses, a quick scan will take care of that. If you have no other means of downloading it just ask Pop's (might cost you a Leo :D ).

Once the the application is downloaded and installed on the thumb drive it can be used on any computer. The browser is opened via the thumb drive. If you have a PC or notebook at home, you can copy the bookmarks onto FF portable.

I use it when I travel or when I ever visit an internet shop. When I'm done and close the browser, cookies are automatically dumped, no trace is left on the host computer. The only draw back is possibly picking up a virus from an infected computer.

Desert Storm, I've only just picked up this thread.

My personal experience of some local Internet cafes is far from positive. Some use very old computers, out of date software and have multiple viruses. Some shops customize the web browsing settings such as text and link colours, this overrides the websites default colour scheme and can effect your browsing experience.

I test the udonmap site via multiple browsers on a fairly regularly and have not found any problems. However my computers are up-to-date with all the latest software. I would suggest the problems you are getting are due to inadequate computers and/or software or someone messing around with the IE browser settings.

As suggested above take a copy of firefox with you on a usb drive and browse the net using that.
