>> Hey everyone, welcome to Tekzilla Daily, I'm Veronica Belmont. Now one of the joys of Firefox is the awesome potential for customization, but if you have several people in your household using it, well, there might be some disagreements about which add-ons to use, what the settings should be and then there's all those conflicting bookmarks and passwords. In short, it can be a total pain, but the eggheads at Mozilla planned for that. Enter, Firefox Profiles. Close Firefox if it's open and open the run dialog. Type firefox.exe minus profilemanager. In the box that pops-up, uncheck the box that says don't ask at start-up. And now every time you open Firefox, you get to choose your own set of add-ons, preferences, passwords, etcetera. Well, it might not automatically create a happier household it should reduce the amount of friction when sharing the same machine for web browsing. Got a tip for us to pass along to the rest of the TZ crew, e-mail us at tekzilla@revision3.com. And as always, tekzilla.com, it's "the Place" to find more tips, tricks, product reviews and how-tos. ^M00:01:05
