How can I uninstall one version of FF, including plugins and profile, without affecting the plugins and profile of a second FF install of a newer version?

I am trying to figure out how to uninstall a FF3.6 instance, including removing the profile, plugins, and settings, without affecting a FF18 instance on the same machine.

Do your 3.6 and 18 installs share the same profile? If this is the case (which is most likely) then uninstall Firefox 3.6, but make sure you keep personal information.

My firefox versions are using separate profiles. I didn't realize the profile manager let you delete profiles, I'll try that next time. I ended up having to uninstall both versions and re-installed them from scratch to clean up my FF3.6 install.
