Anyone know if I could run Firefox 1.07 and 1.5 side by side?
Ive got old versions of IE installed, so it should be possible
Im on WinXP/SP2
Thanks,

I don't see why not as long as there is a seperate install directory

I installed it on a different drive and directory, but it seems to share the same profiles

thanks for the links
i actually got it werking after asking on irc.mozilla.org #firefox
basically:
- Installed 1.5 and 1.07 in seperate directories
- Ran Profile Manager, created two profiles, one for each version
- Modified the shortcuts for each firefox.exe to launch with their respective profilesDone! 1.07 will be phased out in the next 6 months anyways, but its good to check your sites in all common browsers
