This is a really dumb question. At the top of my screen, it says "K-Meleon "" General (Pocket K-Meleon 1.02". Is this the portable version? And, if it is, I'm wondering if this means that all settings are stored in the application directory, so that I can copy it from my computer to a USB drive for backup, and if there's a crash, I can just copy it back from the USB device.
Thanks for any help you can be.

Yes - it is a totaly portable version. All Settings are in the install directory.
BTW. The updated succesor of Portable is at:
http://perso.orange.fr/jujuland/
and at Douglas' Home Page (where You probably found Your Portable 1.02).
K-Meleon Extensions are available at:
http://perso.orange.fr/jujuland46/JujuLand/KMES/KMES-Download.html#down_extensions
Among other things You will find a Roboform adapter.
p.s. If You deselect Multi-Profile support on install every K-Meleon will store its profile in the installation directory. You can force this behavior on any latter time by creating a file named "profile.ini" and place that next to K-Meleon.exe. The ini can be an empty dummy.

Ach, one more thing -- a URL to Douglas' homepage? I downloaded my K-Meleon so long ago that I no longer have the link. Thanks!

Douglas' version = identical to alain's.
AFAIremember they chatted about it in this forum & alain re-did & updated Douglas' versions & both sites host it.
K-Meleon portable original/old site.
p. s. Ach: is AFAIK scotish/dutch or german - how "
dare" You to use it with IMHO (possibly pacific) US IP - ROFL with

Trying to link to the download page for Pocket K-Meleon leads you to a site called "BigUpload" or something like that. There's no prompt on that page to help you download the software. I think the links are broken.
Sorry to be such a pain!

Use the one from alain's page
http://perso.orange.fr/jujuland/
alain is the current maintainer of Portable K-Meleon.

Jeffrey,
Sorry about the download link on my page becoming invalid. I don't know what happened to it - it was working not long ago. Anyway, I have now replaced it with a new working link. (I had agreed to reduce the load on Alain's site by also providing a download link.)
Cheers,
Douglas
