Firefox, Mozilla and difamation

No, it's not. The problem is that unless you take steps to avoid
it, the new version will use your old profile, and once the new
version has gotten its hands on the profile, that profile may be
incompatible with the old version. There are ways of making sure
that different versions of Fx never share the same profile.

Thanks for that. I guess I'll stick with my old version. I don't mess with
profiles, so although you gave a workaround, it sounds complicated to me.


But, if I DO want to try out a different version, I'll use a different
computer...one that doesn't have FF installed.
