yes, you can switch profiles when ff starts:

I think we're differing on the sequence of events. What I am looking for is this sequence:
- start FireFox
- click on some menu
- switch to new profile
From what I've read, one must use this sequence: - open profile manager - select new profile - start Firefox
If the sequence I looking for can't be done, that's ok. I'd just like to know that it can't be done and not that I'm overlooking something.
you're fixing one tiny crack but leaving 100s of others.
There probably are other cracks. But how would one know that and where they are? That is, what can I do to find the cracks, e.g. grep, find, perl?
creating a new profile, copying over key files, & reinstalling extensions is
the only sure way to fix issues like this.
OK. But I like the concept of "trust, but verify" (had we followed that rule we could have spared ourselves a few thousand lives and a few billion $$$, but I digress.) So, how can I verify that creating a new profile fixes the issue better than simply removing the chrome.rdf file? For example, how do I know that the problem is not in one of those key files?
hey, i should write a book on this subject! :)
When's it coming out?
