    Just been asked to install 2 different versions of FF by one of our developer guys, for testing purposes>

    Thought i'd share this blog entry I found on the process, just as a note the profile names appear to be case sensitive.

    Useful for me indeed.

    Had to install 4 concurrent versions of Lotus Notes for our developers recently. That was fun

    Now to figure out how to cleanly uninstall them . . .. . . note to self - stop using primary work system to test notes registry hack weirdness

    Depends how dependent you are on plug-ins. when FF3 first came out people rushed to install and found that most plugins didnt work , nor had up grades. Some had to wait months for developers to catch up.

    Installing in different directory's worked fine for me , however, couldn't have both running at same time.
