Smooth move.; Like this Reply to this comment

It was a little confusing when looking for Minefield to see that it is really a FF 3.1 beta release. So far, so good, so much faster.; Like this Reply to this comment

by October 28, 2009 6:13 PM PDT: I have downloaded and installed the "minefield" version of firefox, but when I go to start it, it starts the version of firefox I already have installed (ver.3.5.3). How can I get the "minefield" version to start instead of the 3.5.3 version. I want to make a different profile in the minefield version of firefox so that I can have BOTH the 3.5.3 and minefield versions on my system even tho I will not be running them both at the same time. Or, better yet can somebody tell me how I can make a profile in minefield without starting minefield so that the profiles in 3.5.3 and minefield are different?
