She's not acquainted with the Run! program, so She uses .cmd files instead for launcing the various FF versions. http://wisdomtree.info/zsoft/os2/internet/browser/firefox-31.8en-USos2b5.zip No .cmd file necessary to start; firefox -P profilename in an object is sufficient. Get pmdll-2.12.zip likely from Hobbes. Run this against firefox.exe and it's dll files. Anything in red is missing. Write list of missing files and I will send them to you. Have never tried to use a profile from prior version. Always made a new profile and copied over relevant files. It may function though. Cal
