Place this in config.sys:

SET  MOZILLA_HOME=R:\MOZILLA.ORG\MOZILLA

 from then on it does not matter what command line parameter or which profile. Everything will be in the correct place.
Decide location of all your profiles and leave it there.

xxxxxxxx.slt  Mozilla created it this way for a reason, leave it alone.

 Sent.msf is more than 2gb?
