after creating a second User Profile I'm always getting "Firefox is already running" message if I try to open a HTML-File from the Filesystem by double-clicking it - default action for HTML-File is open. Looks like Windows (XP SP3) tries to start Firefox a second time instead of using the running instance. I assume file association is somehow wrong - maybe the DDE-Message?
