deloptes writes: > but you can also import and activate your old profile That's what I'm talking about. The process consists essentially of creating a new profile and importing the old one into it. A pointless song and dance that Firefox could do automatically in the background. At the very least they could offer a simple dialog along the lines of "Which of these old profiles do you wish to import?" There was no warning when they started doing this. The first time it hit I was told that I should import my old profile via my nonexistent "Firefox account". Not going to happen. -- John Hasler jhas...@newsguy.com Elmwood, WI USA
