Excited

I am getting worked up with the new project that is coming. I think that this project should be worked from scratch to be able to dictate the flow of the processes involved. I will not divulge any information yet. You have to see this blog every now and then to be able to track what is happening.

Clue: (1) This project involves packages.

Don't wish us luck as it never really helps anyway, not REALLY.

Over and out.

Running Firefox 2 and 3 Simultaneously


Woot! Firefox 3 is out and it ain't beta.

Here's a neat way to run firefox 2 (if you haven't upgraded yet) and firefox 3 together:

1.) Install your new firefox in a different location, say C:\Firefox3
2.) Copy the file to, say, firefox3.exe and create a shortcut for that
3.) Modify the shortcut to your firefox 2 to read "firefox.exe" -no-remote
4.) Do the same thing for your firefox3.exe
5.) Create a new profile for both ( you have to add -ProfileManager to the shortcuts to access the profile manageer, duh!)
6.) Add the name of your profile to the two modified shortcuts
(i.e. C:\Firefox3\Firefox3.exe -no-remote -P Firefox3Profile AND C:\Firefox2\Firefox2.exe -no-remote -P Firefox2Profile)
7.) Shortcuts!!!

The thing is, you have to create the profiles so plugins from one firefox installation, does not appear to the other.

The only problem is, you have to reinstall all your plugins to the NEW firefox
