This is great for backing up your profile, however it sounds like you having a major issue with your Firefox that you should fix before using this.

i know..
every single time i turn it off it loses any and all changes made to it and restarts as if all the extensions have JUST been installed
ive just decided to uninstall and delete the whole folder which hold FF
ill reinstall everything afterwards

doesnt work...
i removed all the extensions and themes manually, disabled all running programs from task manager yet it still starts up as first run
its starting to annoy me
VERY BADLY
anyone know whats wrong?>
EDIT: found the issue
seems i had a few corrupted files in my local program file settings
i just deleted those and firefox stopped being so pissy
i did lose all my passwords etc though...
does anyone know which file is used to keep your passwords?
i left it in the recyclebin in case i might be able to retrieve it

Your passwords/cookies/etc are stored in the C:\users\\AppData\Local\Mozilla\Firefox\profiles\.default\ directory in Vista and in XP is under C:\Documents and Settings\\AppData\... etc.
You probably didn't delete that path and you can copy over your old profile into your new one. Just go by file dates to find out which is the new one.

It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem. -

the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze -

but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in

There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.

@
Veho:
But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".

Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
