I've been using 2 log-ins on my computer to avoid exposure on the web as administrator. I want to be connected to one user profile under a secondary log-in. How do I copy the user profile & where do I find it? Do I need to delete the profile I don't want? Is there a way to "meld the profiles"? Can I get access to edit so I can save some stuff from one & add it to the other?

There are instructions for sharing a Profile with multiple user accounts over at the MozillaZine KnowledgeBase, but the KB seems to be "down" right now. I don't have the exact link to that page, but it should be listed here. You'll have to wait until they get their KB back up & running.

That doesn't exactly help. It tells you how to move a profile between machines, but not how to share a profile between two users, which is what Snarkle and I want to do.

This seems to be a common application problem now that Microsoft have at last added proper user security to Windows - Mozilla isn't the only program set that's giving me problems. Methinks application designers have to bite the bullet and work out exactly what a "profile" is for the first time.
