I think that Mulet is the official way to do it these days. What OS is your desktop? I recently learned that for Linux, at least, I needed to use -no-remote along with -profile, or Mulet would try to run as a new window in my existing Firefox process. If you're on Linux, you might try -no-remote or try quitting Firefox completely. But that's just a guess.
